In fatigue analysis, it is common to use S-N curve from database for spesific material, and some time for spesific way of loading. Is there any way to predict fatigue from direct simulation? For example, giving cyclic loading (10^5 times) and the material will suffer damage and eventually failed. In some FEM codes (MARC, LSDYNA, etc) there is Lemaitre-Chaboche model used to analyze material behavior under low cycle cyclic loading.

 Thanks in advance

Using Computational Biology to Bring Predatory Dinosaurs Back to Life



The proposed programme of research seeks to use state-of-the-art computational techniques to reverse engineer the walking cycle of a predatory dinosaur. Software for image-based modelling, parallel finite element analysis and evolutionary robotics will be coupled and deployed

Our agency, Reliability Analysis Associates, Inc., specializes in recruiting Reliability Engineers and related skills.   For a client in the oil business in Houston, TX we are seeking candidates for two positions that require knowlege of finite element analysis, crack growth, reliability, and low cycle fatigue.   The two job descriptions are attached.
