FatigueStrengthReductionFactor Property (ICWFatigueStudyOptions)

Gets or sets the fatigue strength reduction factor to use when reading S-N curve data.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Property FatigueStrengthReductionFactor As Double
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As ICWFatigueStudyOptions
Dim value As Double
 
instance.FatigueStrengthReductionFactor = value
 
value = instance.FatigueStrengthReductionFactor
C# 
double FatigueStrengthReductionFactor {get; set;}
C++/CLI 
property double FatigueStrengthReductionFactor {
   double get();
   void set (double value);
}

Return Value

0 < fatigue strength reduction factor < 1 (see Remarks)

Example

Remarks

Use this factor to account for differences between the test environment that is used to generate the S-N curve and the actual loading environment. The program divides the alternating stress by this factor before reading the corresponding number of cycles from the S-N curve. This is equivalent to reducing the number of cycles that causes failure at a certain alternating stress.
