Abstract
This paper describes how to compute algorithmically certain twisted signature invariants of a knot KK using twisted Blanchfield forms. An illustration of the algorithm is implemented on (2,q)(2,q)-torus knots. Additionally, using satellite formulas for these invariants, we also show how to obstruct the sliceness of certain iterated torus knots.
