EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute) reports that 7FA gas turbines have a rotor life of about 144,000 hours, or 5,000 starts. The primary life-limiting factor is high cycle fatigue cracks ...
Can a ball screw with a reasonable amount of preload but no outside thrust last forever? Eschatological considerations aside, it's not likely. The balls still have to resist the internal, preload ...
Mechanical parts are more frequently subjected to cyclic loads than solely static loads. Fatigue issues are commonly observed in turbine blades, aerospace components, locomotive systems, large ...
