Strain Life Equation
/2 = (f /E)(2Nf)b + f (2Nf)c
Where:
/2 = Strain Amplitude
E = Youngs Modulus
f = Fatigue Strength Coefficient
f = Fatigue Ductility Coefficient
b = Fatigue Strength Exponent
c = Fatigue Ductility Exponent
2Nf = Reversals To Failure

Modified Strain Life Equation
(Reference: M. Roessle and A. Fatemi, Int. Journ. Fatigue, 22, 2000)
/2 = [(4.25BHN+225)/E](2Nf)-0.09
+ [(0.32BHN2 - 487BHN + 191000)/E](2Nf)-0.56
Where:
BHN = Brinell Hardness Number
