• Storace et al 1984 developed a computer program to predict structural response due to soft body impact
• Rao and Srinivas 2003 used LS Dyna for impact of fan blades by bird
• Bianchi 2009 used RADIOSS for a bird strike onto a helicopter blade and onto a rotor control chain
• Heidari, Carlson and Yantis 1995 developed rotor dynamics as a nonlinear transient analysis for a propulsion system during the fan blade loss event from a bird strike.

• Rao and Saravana Kumar 2008 simulated the steady state operation of a two stage pump to study the resulting unsteady pressure field from nozzle excitation. Here the bird strike is simulated by blockage of inlet struts that results in unsteady pressure field on the first stage compressor blade.

Crack propagation life • For the initial crack length (semi elliptic crack)
Daf= 0.015 mm, the notch radius r= 2.64 mm measured from model.
• In considered notch geometry a/b is taken as 0.5, K(a/b) = 1.35 and = 0.5 from Fig 10. The mean stress is 268 MPa and amplitude of alternating is 129.6 MPa
• Life estimation with crack propagation to 1cm at 15000 RPM and a 2EO equalled 111514 cycles.
• Thus life for 501.84 Hz : 111514 / (501.84) = 222.32 sec =3.705 min.

Conclusions
• A bird impact is modeled as a block in the flow path that generates transient high pressure distribution on the first compressor rotor as a shock for 123 min to crack initiaton and 73.61min to 12 mm crack length propagation.
• The blade material data was verified experimentally. Several excitation harmonics of unsteady forces acting on a rotor blade (blocked by one to five block segments) were found using the FFT. A nonlinear damping model with an iteration procedure to obtain the alternating stress field was used in five cases.
• To determine resonant stress, only hysteresis damping was considered here, since at high operational speeds, friction can be neglected. The material damping is determined in the I mode of vibration as a function of reference strain amplitude at the operating speed. This nonlinear damping model is used by an iteration procedure to obtain the resonant stress.
• The life estimation up to crack initiation was calculated numerically and compared with the experiment. The results obtained from numerical analysis were shorter than the experimental ones.
