In this paper, a novel method for high temperature fatigue strength assessment of nickel superalloy turbine blades after operation at different times (303 and 473 h) was presented. The studies included destructive testing (fatigue testing at temperature 950 °C under cyclic bending load), non-destructive testing (Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection and Eddy Current method), and finite element modelling. High temperature fatigue tests were performed within load range from 5200 to 6600 N using a special self-designed blade grip attached to the conventional testing machine. The experimental results were compared with the finite element model generated from the ANSYS software. It was found that failure of turbine blades occurred in the area with the highest stress concertation, which was accurately predicted by the finite element (FE) model.

The static and cyclic failure mechanisms of offshore pipe riser repaired with a designated laminate orientation of carbon/epoxy (C/E) system were studied. The finite element (FE) model takes into account failure mechanisms of the composite sleeve inter-layer delamination, debonding at the steel riser-composite surface interface, and the maximum permissible strain of the repaired riser. Design conditions of the combined static loads (coupled internal pressure, longitudinal tensile and transverse bending) were determined through a limit state analysis [1,2]. The limiting static bending load that causes catastrophic failure under a coupled internal pressure and tensile loadings was determined through Virtual Crack Closure Technique (VCCT). The effects of cyclic bending, mimicking the typical scenarios experienced in pipe riser exposed to dynamic subsea environment, were evaluated and compared against the static conditions. The low cycle fatigue of the composite repair system (CRS) is simulated using a direct cyclic analysis within a general purpose FE program, where the onset and fatigue delamination/disbonding growth are characterized through the Paris Law.

When the gun chamber pressure is tested, its instantaneous high temperature up to 3000 , Sensor directly touches the high temperature gas. According to this special use environment, A novel method is proposed in this paper: the thermal barrier coating (TBC) is added to protect the sensor against its thermal deformity. And temperature characteristics of the sensor with TBC are analyzed through finite element. finally, its temperature characteristics were experimentally tested. Results show that the thermal barrier coating plaied heat insulation role, temperature stability of the sensor is good.

The structural design of wind turbine blades is a rapidly evolving technology. Finite element (FE) modelling is used extensively by structural designers to assess the behaviour of wind turbine blades under operational and extreme load conditions. This paper develops a method of transferring aerodynamic and inertial loads from the aeroelastic analysis output to the FE model. Once a procedure is developed and verified, case studies are undertaken using an FE model of a 34m blade. Loads are applied using the newly developed method and various FE analysis results compared to the same blade analysed under more traditional load application techniques. The case study clearly demonstrates that the method of applying loads can influence some types of analysis results significantly.
