About the book The blade life estimation is a multifaceted technology, involving free and forced vibration forces, that lead to the determination of steady and dynamic stresses at different critical speeds during the startup and shutdown procedures, as well as in the operational speed range.Propagation and unstable fracture are described with practical examples to estimate blade life. | |
