Use Stress Level

The Use Stress Level window is used to define the normal stress levels for every stress that is selected to be used in the analysis. This value can also be defined during the setup of the standard folio. To access the window, click Set Use Stress directly underneath the Analysis Settings area of the control panel.

The Stress area of the window lists every stress that will be used in the calculation. In the Use Stress Level area, enter the stress level that the product will experience under normal conditions. For example, to specify that the normal operating temperature for a product is 328 K and the normal operating voltage is 2 V, you would enter the following into the window:

If you selected a cumulative damage (CD) model on the control panel, you will also be able to use stress profiles to describe time-varying stress conditions that the product will experience during normal use. See Using Stress Profiles in the ALTA Standard Folio.
