Abstract: In a method for predicting bending life spans of wires, the wires, temperatures, pre-vibration shapes, and constraint conditions are set, and finite element models of the electric wires are formed using a finite element method. Natural frequencies for the pre-vibration shapes are calculated, and stresses in individual finite elements of the finite element models which correspond to the natural frequencies are calculated, and a maximum stress is retrieved.
