Many structural failures occur not from a single overload, but from the cumulative damage of repeated stress cycles. At CAD FEA Solutions our advanced Fatigue Simulation services predict the service life of materials and components under such conditions. This analysis is essential for designing durable, reliable products that can withstand their operational environment over time, preventing costly field failures and ensuring safety.
In-Depth Fatigue Analysis Methods
We utilise industry-standard S-N and E-N methods to provide detailed predictions of your component’s fatigue life. This analysis determines the number of stress cycles to failure, identifying endurance limits and ensuring reliable long-term performance.
Our simulations can identify the most likely locations for crack initiation and model their growth over time. This proactive analysis allows for targeted design improvements to enhance structural resilience and prevent catastrophic failure.
Simulation of Real-World Loading Conditions
We simulate complex, real-world loading histories, including variable amplitudes and frequencies from operational data. This provides a much more accurate reflection of a component’s actual service environment compared to simple, constant-amplitude analysis.
Our team is equipped to handle complex multi-axial loading scenarios, where stresses are applied from multiple directions simultaneously. This is crucial for accurately predicting fatigue life in components with complex geometries and loading paths.
Integrated Design for Longevity
Fatigue analysis provides the critical data needed to select the most appropriate and cost-effective materials. By comparing the fatigue performance of different options, you can make informed decisions that balance durability with cost and weight.
Based on simulation results, we provide actionable recommendations for design modifications. This can include adjusting geometry, adding fillets, or refining features to reduce stress concentrations and significantly enhance the fatigue life and overall reliability of your product.
