This chapter introduces the basic methods of load analysis for durability. Loads refer to any physical quantity that reflects the excitation or the behaviour of a system or component over time. The most typical loads are forces, torques, stresses, strains, displacements, velocities, and accelerations. However, other loads may be pressure or flow in hydraulic devices, rotational speed, temperature, or even state variables on the CAN bus or in some electronic control unit. The chapter deals with methods operating in the so‐called amplitude domain of the signals under consideration. It deals with the frequency‐based methods needed for system analysis. Amplitude‐based methods and frequency‐based methods treat load analysis for a one‐dimensional load signal. In practice there are often several load signals acting simultaneously on the system. The chapter shows how to extend one‐input methods to the situation of multi‐input loads.
