Assertion (A): Miner's rule can be substantially in error for real service spectra.

Reason (R): It sums damage linearly and takes no account of load sequence.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Both are true and the second explains the first. Sequence effects, particularly overload retardation, mean the same set of cycles applied in different orders gives different lives. The rule remains useful as a first estimate because of its simplicity.
