- Loading methods:
- overview of the basic loading methods
- advanced loading capabilities
- incorporating residual stresses
- defining loading in fe-safe®
- Fatigue methods, including:
- strain-life methods
- stress-life methods
- factor of strength and FRF calculations
- fatigue of cast iron
- high temperature fatigue
- fatigue of welds, including an introduction to the Verity® method
- Hands-on examples and exercises, including:
- choosing algorithms
- configuring analyses
- setting/using defaults
- defining groups and group parameters
