AutoPIPE has a very robust fatigue analysis based on Nuclear Class 1 piping. The interface and reporting is very intuitive and well developed.

Evaluating the cumulative effect of the stress cycles experienced by the piping system is done first by deciphers the stress cycles. The number of times each stress cycle of type 1, 2, 3, etc. is repeated during the life of the system shall be designated as n1, n2, n3, etc. This…
