<br>
This section presents a generalized formulation of the cumulative damage model where stress can be any function of time and the life-stress relationship is based on the Arrhenius life-stress relationship. Given a time-varying stress  <math>x(t)</math>  and assuming the Arrhenius relationship, the life-stress relationship is given by:
 
<br>
::<math>L(x(t))=C{{e}^{\tfrac{b}{x(t)}}}</math>
 
<br>
In ALTA, the above relationship is actually presented in a format consistent with the general log-linear (GLL) relationship for the Arrhenius relationship:
 
<br>
::<math>L(x(t))={{e}^{{{\alpha }_{0}}+{{\alpha }_{1}}\tfrac{1}{x(t)}}}</math>
 
<br>
Therefore, instead of displaying  <math>C</math> and <math>b</math> as the calculated parameters, the following reparameterization is used:
 
<br>
::<math>\begin{align}
{{\alpha }_{0}}=\ & \ln (C) \\
{{\alpha }_{1}}=\ & b 
\end{align}</math>
