ANSYS, Inc. Release Notes
FATJACK provides the ability to assess the fatigue life of welded tubular joints. Joints can be defined with multiple nodes in the typical Y, K, T, X and KT forms, with chord and brace members automatically determined by default. Stress concentration factors can be automatically calculated using a number of built in formulas or manually entered.
When used in conjunction with Mechanical it can be used for deterministic or time history analysis; when used in conjunction with ASAS it can also be used for spectral analysis.
The following new features are available in Release 13.0 of ANSYS FATJACK:
The documentation for the code checking module FATJACK is now available from the ANSYS on-line help system.
FATJACK can be used in the Design Assessment system when Mechanical is used for the analysis.
