Preface

The strength assessment for structural components constitutes a comparison between the occurring stress and allowable stress (the capacity to withstand loads). The capacity of a structural component to withstand loads must be higher than the stress which occurs in operation, including a certain safety factor. For the certification of fatigue life under variable load amplitude, the use of simple characteristic values, such as static strength characteristics, is not sufficient. For this purpose, characteristic functions are necessary for describing the load and capacity to withstand loads. For the load, this function is a frequency distribution of the amplitudes, that is, a load spectrum or load matrix. For the capacity to withstand loads, the function can be
