  Hi! I would like to obtain some information about the fatigue tool and the Strain-Life approach. Historically, in Ansys, there was no option to account for non-proportional loading with this approach. Could you kindly confirm if now the latest version of Ansys supports this type of loading (non-proportional ) in the Strain-Life approach? I could find on the internet that non-proportional load is supported for the strain-life approach under the Beta option, could you please confirm this information?
  Thank you!

  EN fatigue with non-proportional loading is a Beta feature in the current release because it has not been fully tested and documented. You can access it if you have Beta options active.
