I am doing fatigue analysis for reinforced beam with fixed end and simply supported end as two different cases to study the failure pattern. I am planning to provide cyclic load from 0 to 50 kN for a number of times on the two points shown in the figure till the structure fails, how can I achieve this?

If you have SN or EN fatigue properties and the analysis is linear, you can use the Mechancial Fatigue Tool (FT) with history data loading or Ansys nCode DesignLife with time series or time step loading.
