The fatigue crack initiation and propagation behavior of film cooling holes (FCHs) under
different drilling processes are of great significance to key structural parts. In this paper, it …

The fatigue crack growth behaviour of a single crystal nickel base superalloy was studied at
three different temperatures (20° C, 500° C and 750° C) and three different crystallographic …

Due to several physical and computational difficulties in Finite Element (FE) analysis of
contact in fir-tree blade-disk attachments of gas turbines, there has always been a great …

This study explores the morphological changes and interaction mechanisms of multiple
crack propagations in steel bridge joints. Fatigue testing was conducted to determine the …

Crack propagation rates from isothermal and in-phase high temperature thermomechanical
fatigue crack propagation tests for Inconel 792 resulted in a rather large scatter band when …

In order to explore the nanoscale mechanism of nanocrack propagation in polycrystalline
titanium under tensile condition, molecular dynamics model of polycrystalline titanium was …

The inherent anisotropy of single-crystal nickel-base superalloys brings many difficulties in
terms of modelling, evaluation and prediction of fatigue crack growth. Two models to predict …

Fatigue crack is one of the major faults of the gas turbine blades. Previous modeling studies
on fatigue crack growth of blades mainly focus on a single numerical or analytical approach …

The elastic and plastic anisotropy of the single-crystalmaterials bring many difficulties in
terms of modeling, evaluation and prediction of fatigue crack growth. In this paper a single …

The work presented in this dissertation has been conducted at the Division of Solid
Mechanics, Linköping University. The first part of the research project, which resulted in the …
