Turbomachine airfoil life management system and method

A system (50) for creating a risk analysis for at least one turbomachine includes a database (401) storing characteristics of one or more turbomachines and a processing module (402) coupled to the database that receives the characteristics from the database and creates the risk analysis. The processing module includes a modeling module (408) that creates a representation of the amount of rocking in a particular turbomachine based on the characteristics and a performance modeler coupled to the modeling module (416) and that, based on the representation of the amount of rocking, creates the risk analysis.
