Thank you,

I added a material over the point where I had to apply load with dimension 100mm x 100mm(a rectangular projection as it was more convenient), but now while solving an error popped, "An error occurred inside the FATIGUE module: Invalid or missing stress life curve." So should I add SN curve for that material as well, if so what should be the value for alternating stress and cycles. The material properties provided were, Young's modulus = 10000 psi and poisson's ratio = 0.49999 also it is an isotropically elastic material.
