A method for estimating the life of a component, such as a fuel tank with a baffle, subjected to fluid loading effected by a fluid (18), the method comprising: creating a finite element mesh of the component and a CFD mesh of the fluid from a CAD model of the componentusing the FE and CFD meshes to determine the fluid structure interactions by considering the displacement of the structure caused by the fluid forces calculating a fluid parameter (using a chosen fluid solver) calculating a structural parameter (using the fluid parameter) [using a chosen structural solver] determining the life of the component at least indirectly from the calculated parameters |
