  Hi,
  i would like to do SN Stress analysis of the FE structure with such load cycle.
  I think that the best way to define this cycle is to use time series, but i don't know how to prepere such file.
  I thought the timeseries file is just a csv file with such columns:
  t,FX,FZ
  0,0,18690
  .
  .
  .
  Can anyone advise me how to do this or what other method to use?

  You do not need the time column in the time series file and it may be simpler to use two single column file rather than 1 2-column file. If you are using Ansys nCode DesignLife via the Mechanical embedded Add-On, the time series multipliers can be stored in an ASCII file. If you are using Ansys nCode DesignLife via the HBK interface, you need to use the nCode ASCII Translate utilty to convert the ASCII file into a DesignLife format (e.g., a .s3t file).
