This study investigated the high cycle fatigue (HCF) behavior of a titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-4V, after being subjected to simulated foreign object damage (FOD). For this purpose, rectangular specimens were damaged to various depths by steel indenters of different diameters under quasi-static loading to simulate damage found in turbine engine airfoils during service. The fatigue strength of these specimens...
