Weibull-Based Design Methodology for Rotating Structures in Aircraft Engines

The NASA Energy-Efficient Engine (E3-Engine) is used as the basis of a Weibull-based life and reliability analysis. Each component's life, and thus the engine's life, is defined by high-cycle fatigue or low-cycle fatigue. Knowing the cumulative life distribution of each of the components m...
