A Heuristic Algorithm for a Turbine-Blade-Balancing Problem

In the turbine-blade manufacturing industry, turbine-blades are machined and then are assembled to form a circular roll of blades. The roll of blades should be balanced as much as possible, since otherwise the efficiency of the turbine generator might degrade. We propose a heuristic method for balancing blades based on the number partitioning algorithm. The proposed method outperformed existing methods remarkably in terms of the accuracy with a negligible increase in the running time.
