Abstract
This article presents an overview of the Blade Mechanics Seminar hosted annually in Winterthur by Zurich University of Applied Sciences. This seminar is co-organized by the Swiss Section of the ASME and focuses on the common need for knowledge base analyses. It offers a platform for know-how and experience exchange between engineers from various turbomachinery companies. The Blade Mechanics Seminar aims to answer the participants' needs that arise in their daily work regarding axial and radial bladed discs of aero-engines and industrial turbines. A one-hour keynote speech given by an expert from the industry opens the one-day seminar that also includes a few presentations followed by comprehensive discussions on the understanding of the presented problems and their solutions. As a discussion forum, this seminar highlights many dimensions of the state of the technology and methodology applied to blade analysis. In 2010, non-destructive testing of component properties was demonstrated at Alstom's booth, providing practical experience for finite element analysts.
