Abstract
Thermal gradients arising during transient regimes of start-up and shut-down operations produce a complex thermal and mechanical fatigue loading which limits the life of turbine blades. The thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) test consists in applying independent temperature-time and mechanical strain-time cycles to an LCF specimen in order to simulate the thermo-mechanical loading experienced by turbine blades [1].
