Steady-state coupling vibration analysis of shaft–disk–blade system with blade crack

TL;DR: In this paper, a modified stress-based breathing crack model (MSBCM) for rotating blade is proposed, and the validity of the proposed model is verified by comparing the results obtained by MSBCM, finite element contact crack model and conventional analytical crack models.

Vibration of Nearly Periodic Structures and Mistuned Bladed Rotors

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present fundamental concepts and state-of-the-art techniques in the analysis of free and forced response of a nearly periodic structure, weaving together his own work (covering thirty-five years of research in this field) with works by other researchers.

Finite element dynamic analysis of blade shear center effects on practical bladed discs

TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamic characteristics of rotating and non-rotating practical bladed discs have been investigated by taking blade shear center effects into account, and it has been found that when these effects in the blade are high the bladed disc vibration characteristics can also be considerably changed.

Transient Stress Analysis and Fatigue Life Estimation of Turbine Blades

TL;DR: In this article, the life estimation of a turbine blade taking into account the combined effects of centrifugal stresses, vibratory stresses and thermal stresses is investigated, and the fatigue life is estimated from the number of cycles in various blocks during start-up and shut-down periods of the turbine operation.
