Abstract	A mathematical model for investigating the fatigue performance of structural materials and configurations is presented. This proposed loading standard has been adopted by Germany and the Netherlands and used to test transport aircraft wing root bending. Algorithms and input data for applying the program to fighter aircraft wing bending are presented. (Author)
