Question: Zeng et . al . ( 2 0 0 2 ) produced a nice data set for cyclic loading of S 2 4 0 MC

Zeng et. al.(2002) produced a nice data set for cyclic loading of S240MC steel. I have generated the corresponding SN curve for the data set and approximated the low cycle (blue), high cycle (red), and endurance (yellow) portions with linear approximations (please note, the data does not appear to have an endurance limit, but for the sake of this problem we will approximate one).
Using the SN-curve, and assuming a piece of S240MC steel is cyclically loaded as shown below, determine the factor of safety using the a) Soderberg, b) Goodman, and c) Gerber criterions.
