Forum Post: RE: Fatigue Usage Factor

Hello Brent The reason there are different numbers of lines and sometime no entries in the summary table is because the alternating stress value for the load pair becomes so small that it is beyond the end of the curve. The allowable cycles are >10^6 for Austenitic steel so getting very high. There were some recent extensions to the curves, increasing the number of cycles and I have a team meeting to discuss if we should remove or reduce this limit value. It is a legacy limit and was likely introduced to reduce run time and output size with non significant entries when computing speeds were much slower. I will up-date you after the meeting. Regards Phil Senior
