fatigue algorithm

Hi guys,

I'm Simone.

I would like to know which algorithm Solidworks uses to do a fatigue analysis.

I mean, which algorithm it uses to calculate the component's residual strength force?

It consider the residual strength force's probability density with a normal distribution?
How it compute the residual strength force's translation over the years?

Thanks a lot!

Simone
