Abstract

Aeroengines are recognized as the most sophisticated and complex mechanical systems ever built. Known as the “heart” of an aircraft, the aeroengine represents a comprehensive embodiment of a country’s scientific and industrial achievements (Tu et al. in Aeronautical Manufacturing Technology 7:53–56, 2014). The progress in materials, structural design and manufacture are all controlling factors in the development of aviation industry.
