Fatigue analysis: Load cases data for rainflow analysis

Simulation file name

The name of the simulation file which represents the load case, either the full path or a relative path.

Line name

The name of the line, in the load case simulation file, to be analysed.

Note: The line name will usually be the same in all load cases (though this is not necessary). The named lines in the various load cases must, of course, all represent the same physical line and use the same discretisation in the areas being analysed.

Simulation period

The period of the pre-run simulation file that defines the load case.

Exposure time

The total time the system is exposed to this load case.
