Create Events with Constant Amplitude
Add constant amplitude loads and combine them with subcases to create events.
- An event with a single constant amplitude – FE subcase pair creates a stress range after the FE subcase is multiplied with constant amplitude to create a constant amplitude stress history.
- If multiple pairs of constant amplitude – FE subcase are placed in a single event, the stress history created by each pair is superimposed to create a single stress history.
- For the Eurocode 3 specification, multiple events created are passed as separate
ranges to create cumulative damage.
Cumulative Damage = Damage from Event 1 + damage from Event 2 + … damage from Event n.
