    Abstract: The relative deformation value measured at the stage of closing and pushing of continuous rigid frame bridge appears difference from the model theoretical calculated values in most cases, because most models ignore the pile-soil effect and simplified consider the bottom of the pier as consolidation. At the same time, most literatures use single pil... Show More

    Abstract: This work centres on the investigation of the effects of ambient temperature, shaft power level and compressor degradation (in the form of reduction of health parameter indices including flow capacity index, isentropic efficiency index, and the pressure ratio index) on the creep-fatigue interaction life consumption of the high pressure turbine blad...
