The work discusses the complex thermo-mechanical approaches developed at ONERA within the context of gas turbine component fatigue tests. Emphasis is placed on the general experimental methods to test nickel-based single crystal superalloys used in gas turbine blades under severe thermal and mechanical conditions. First, the successive steps required in combined thermal and mechanical fatigue testing are briefly discussed. Particular focus is placed on the techniques developed to reliably control and measure temperature fields generated by induction heating.
