SOFTWARE - FATIGUE BEHAVIOUR and LIFE EXPECTANCY CALCULATIONS 2

[ATsampalas]

Dear Sirs,
I am trying to find any software taking into consideration the Fatigue behaviour (and Life Expectancy Calculations) according to :
EN 12952-3 - (latest 12/2001 edition) Water-tube boilers and auxiliary installations - Part 3 - Design and calculation for pressure parts - Chapter 13 + Annexes
EN 12952-4 - (latest 02/2000 edition) Water-tube boilers and auxiliary installations - Part 4 - In-service boiler life expectancy calculations
If you know any development about the previous points :
a) Price including fees ;
b) Maintenance ;
c) Updates ;
--> Can you please explain how claims, further explanations, clarifications, updates are taken into consideration !

Sincerely,

A_Tsampalas

The referenced codes have provided equations that define the charted curves- it should be a simple matter to program these curves into an Excel spreadsheet.

You may want to try Google these fatigue codes together with excell or xls keywords.

see section 2.2.6 of the following document for a list of software products that reference EN 13445 or 12952 for their fatigue analysis:
