1. A method for evaluating a damaged blade in a compressor or turbine using a computer system accessing a database of blade repair information, said method comprising:
- a. selecting a blade damage geometry category corresponding to the damage of the blade from a plurality of blade damage geometry categories stored in said database;
b. measuring the blade damage and inputting into the computer system blade damage measurements, and c. generating a repair geometry for said blade damage based on the blade damage measurements and the selected blade damage geometry category, wherein said repair geometry is generated by said computer system and includes dimensions of the repair geometry, and displaying a diagram of the blade repair geometry.
