Question

3. A particular component on a wind turbine is expected to see fatigue cycles and stresses as shown on the attached SN Diagram. Data for points shown in orange is contained on the accompanying Excel file. Using Miner rule determine if the component will survive the anticipated stress cycles. Remember that the SN data is shown and plotted on a log-log format.
