Comments & Observations Comments & Observations
There is a substantial period of crack
th f thi t Th f ti growth for this component. The fatigue
crack can be monitored, inspected, and the
t b l d i d ft component can be replaced or repaired after
500 more hours of operation.
Half-life (factor of safety on life) is a safer
criterion than length, because cracks grow
too rapidly as they become longer.
