Defines a set of fatigue event parameters.

Mechanical APDL Command: FE

factstr

Scale factor to be applied to all loadings in this event (defaults to 1.0).

titlestr

User defined identification title for this event (up to 20 characters).

Notes

Repeat FE command to define additional sets of event parameters ( MXEV limit), to redefine event parameters, or to delete event stress conditions.

The set of fatigue event parameters is associated with all loadings and all locations. See the FTSIZE command for the maximum set of events ( MXEV ) allowed.
