FE-Safe Fatigue Life Simulation Course Using Abaqus is a practical training designed for engineers and students who want to perform advanced fatigue life prediction using FE-Safe — starting directly from Abaqus simulation results. This course teaches you how to run real-world S–N, ε–N, weld, and multiaxial fatigue analyses using your existing FEA data.
In mechanical engineering, fatigue is responsible for up to 90% of structural failures in service. That’s why knowing how to simulate and predict fatigue behavior is essential for any design or validation engineer. This course walks you through the full fatigue workflow, starting from theory and Abaqus model preparation to advanced simulations in FE-safe.
This course is your complete guide to FE-Safe Fatigue Life Simulation, one of the most powerful tools for durability simulations. Whether you’re using Abaqus or ANSYS for preprocessing, this course teaches you how to carry out professional fatigue life predictions for real-world mechanical components and welded structures.
Built for Abaqus users, this course skips the fluff and gets right into what matters: how to take your Abaqus ODB file and generate fatigue life contours using FE-Safe’s most powerful tools. You’ll learn both theory and implementation with guided, reproducible examples — no need to guess the workflow or reverse-engineer half-explained steps from old documents.
🔧 This is a hands-on course. You’ll open Abaqus ODBs, define fatigue materials, apply mean stress corrections, and interpret results — step by step.
You’ll cover the two most widely used fatigue methods: S–N (stress-life) and ε–N (strain-life), along with dedicated modules on mean stress correction, BS7608 weld analysis, and multiaxial fatigue failure. Each concept is backed with a practical example and simulation file so you can follow along.
If you use Abaqus and want to predict fatigue failure without jumping into coding or custom tools, this course is for you.
