Fatigue analysis is done on an air-tank in frequency domain for a random vibration using PSD (Power Spectral Density) of a white noise. This PSD of the noise is multiplied with the transfer function obtained from ABAQUS to get equivalent stress. The obtained results are compared with standard time domain analysis.
