ID |
Each FATSEQ card must have a unique ID. FATSEQ Subcase Information entry may reference this identifier. Alternatively this ID may be referenced by other FATSEQ definitions. No default (Integer > 0) |
FID# |
Identification number of FATSEQ or FATEVNT entry (see Comment 2) No default (Integer > 0) |
N# |
Number of times this loading sequence or event is repeated. Repeat number (N#) has no effect on the results of a Factor of Safety (FOS) analysis. Default = 1 (Integer > 0) |
1. | Identification numbers of FATSEQ and FATEVNT entries share the same ID pool. |
2. | A fatigue subcase should reference the same subcase types through FATSEQ and FATEVNT entries (for example, either static subcases or transient subcases can be referenced, but not both). Referencing a combination of subcase types is not allowed. |
3. | This card is represented as a loadcollector in HyperMesh. |
