Abaqus Low cycle fatigue - Hysteresis Energy Criteria

Hi,
I am trying to do Low cycle fatigue analysis in abaqus, and
according to the Documentation, for bulk material damage initiation and damage
evolution definition, I can use the criteria (and type for Damage evolution) as
"Hysteresis Energy". And have to define 4 material variables C1 to
C4.
Abaqus Low cycle fatigue - Hysteresis Energy Criteria
Hi,
I am trying to do Low cycle fatigue analysis in abaqus, and
according to the Documentation, for bulk material damage initiation and damage
evolution definition, I can use the criteria (and type for Damage evolution) as
"Hysteresis Energy". And have to define 4 material variables C1 to
C4.
But in the abaqus material library (in abaqus-CAE) i could find
all the other criteria but not the "Hysteresis energy". I also tried
to define it in the *.inp file but abaqus could not read it (apparently wasn't
writing it correctly).

Deadline extended: CSME International congress: Fatigue and Fracture of engineering materials
All,
The deadline to submit article for the CSME international congress has been extended to February 17th, 2012. We are organizing a symposium on fatigue and fracture of engineering materials and strongly encourage researchers around the world to submit their research articles relevant to this field.
More information can be obtained from the following website: http://umanitoba.ca./engineering/conferences/csme2012/index.html
How to do a fatigue life prediction of a welded joint using ANSYS?
i got three questions here.
1) If im using ANSYS, how am i gonna do a fatigue life prediction of a welded joint? The speciment is butt joint. I need to know the procedure.
2) If im using ANSYS nCode DesignLife, how am i gonna obtain the SN curve if im using FE Model or Multi-column?
3) If Im using ANSYS nCode DesignLife, what should i pick for the geometry if im doing on CTOD method of a butt joint welded speciment?
Thanks for the help. :)
A simple approximate expression for finite life fatigue behaviour in the presence of ‘crack-like’ or ‘blunt’ notches
After a long process (somebody may recall I made also quite some chaos on imechanica to complain with the review process in a previous journal), this paper was accepted. Ask me a preprint if you are interested. I can attach here a few images only.

Damage tolerance of railway axles
Failure of railway axles has been the problem which gave origin to the studies about 'fatigue'. The modern approach to the structural integrity of these safety components is to complement the traditional designwith a 'damage toleranc' analysis.
Fatigue Analysis on ANSYS 11.0
I am currently having difficulty modelling fatigue analysis on a wheelchair frame with hollow circular sections (pipe 16). When assigning the stress locations it says that the stress is not available for that node.
Any help would be appreciated!
