Fatigue & Fracture Analysis
A product may meet initial loads, but in-field failure can occur over time from stresses resulting from repeated loads, dynamic forces and rapidly applied loads. In such cases, a static stress analysis might not be sufficient to assess the durability of your products and an in-depth fatigue analysis is required.
When a product experiences complex load conditions including time variations, the simple stress analysis can lead to incorrect critical locations and/or an overdesigned part. Wilde has significant experience in the assessment of the fatigue life of structures. Originally this was performed using hand calculations from the results of a static analysis. However, with dedicated fatigue software now available, comprehensive integrated fatigue software, training and consulting solutions are now provided to ANSYS users and beyond.
