Spectrum Loading

Spectrum Loading is a loading condition in damage tolerance analysis characterized by the application of variable amplitude and sequence-varying stress cycles that replicate in-service operational environments, distinguishing it from constant-amplitude loading by its representation of real-world load variability and sequencing effects on fatigue crack growth.
