Running Fatigue Analysis and Viewing Results

Right-click Fatigue 1 in the Simulation study tree and click Run.
Notice that the program creates a Results folder where fatigue result plots are created.
Right-click the Results folder and click Define Fatigue Plot .
In the PropertyManager:
1. Under Plot Type, select Life.
2. Click .
  The Total Life plot is displayed.
  
  The life plot shows that failure due to fatigue is likely to occur at the two holes after approximately 23,313 cycles.
