Cylindrical Test Specimen
Model ID: 14047

A benchmark model for the fatigue module. A cylindrical test is subjected to normal and shear load scenario. Three stress based models: Findley, Matake, Normal stress, are compared to analytical values and to each other. The non-smooth behavior of the Matake model is captured and discussed.
