When designing for dynamic loading, the Goodman line is used to predict failure by accounting for both mean and alternating stresses. The Goodman line can be most accurately described as:
1
A horizontal line in the mean stress versus alternating stress plot
2
A parabolic curve in the mean stress versus alternating stress plot
3
A vertical line in the mean stress versus alternating stress plot
4
A linearly decreasing line in the mean stress versus alternating stress plot
