I make for first time fatigue calculation on SACS and I don’t find all the information on the SACS documentation did someone can help me please?
Regard
It is 'fatigue damage' which is provided in term of 'number of cycle / number of cycle to failure' i.e. D = n/N. Therefore it is unitless.
when
D=1 --> Fatigue failure
D<1 --> No fatigue failure.
Btw, according to the code, you need to provide Factor of Safety (FS).
Then,
D Shall be < 1 / FS --> OK
D > 1 / FS --> Not OK
Dear Kasiphon
I know how perform fatigue calculation.
But in SACS I don’t know how interpreted all the information in the “.lst” file.
That I think understand is the information that I surrounded is the % of the load case (1 to 8) participation to the damage.
Can please confirm?
Kind regard
