ANSYS 2024 R1 nCode DesignLife

Introduction to ANSYS nCode DesignLife

ANSYS nCode DesignLife is a powerful software used for analyzing local deformations in any structure to determine fatigue life.

Overview

This software is the leading solution for solving fatigue life problems, offering assessment methods based on stress level, deformations, and the Dang Van method. It features stress life fatigue analysis where the fatigue life of a structure is determined by the stress level. Interpolation between material properties curves based on temperature and the ability to use Python scripts for creating or enhancing fatigue life evaluation methods are some of the key features of ANSYS nCode DesignLife.
