Talk:Rainflow-counting algorithm

Reference to Sandia code

It is irrelevant to mention the Sandia National Laboratories LIFE2 code. It sounds as publicity.

Mistake in Figure 4?

I'm by no means an expert in this field, but from reading the algorithms it seems to me that the topmost blue half cycle in figure 4 (starting at around value -14) should "water drop" downwards until it reaches the righmost peak at value +15. This, in turn would influence the some later troughs. If this is no error, please help me correct my understanding of the algorithm. Bleistiftspitzer (talk) 14:16, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you, the figure 4 needs to be corrected. --Irmo322 (talk) 19:58, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reply regarding the "mistake"

As the flow merges with the following flow (starting about 0) I think it flows opposite a tensile peak of greater magnitude. If you use the new flow it merges with as a reference this is true for Figure 4. But this is just my understanding of it and I'm no expert on the matter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.235.154.16 (talk) 13:06, 13 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not an expert too. But the example C of figure 3 is a counter example of your argument. --Irmo322 (talk) 19:58, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Most popular as of 2008?

Any data to support that claim? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.129.196.110 (talk) 16:18, 7 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It has been removed. It was unsupportable and not very informative. NeedsGlasses (talk) 01:04, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
