      How can I simulate 1 force that is constant, and 2 other forces that are cyclic that alternate between a maximum and a minimum around an average of 0.
      This is required to calculate Von Mises's and factor of safety.

      No so. I want 1 force to be constant, 3500 N, than another force to be cyclic so, -1500 to 1500 N.
      I understand how to do fatigue but I just don't get how to set it so, 1 force is always 3500 N and the other is cycling between -1500 to 1500.
