Abstract:
An integrated system for assessing the condition and management of a structural platform or a plurality of platforms includes a Structural Health Monitoring System (SHM), an Operational loads Monitoring System (OLM), a static, fatigue and damage tolerance analysis (FDTA) subsystem, a databank storing a maintenance plan, and a subsystem configured for damage and repair management (iSRM). The SHM may include a plurality of transducers, including a plurality of pairs of actuators and sensors; a generator device configured to excite at least one of said sensors to produce ultrasonic guided waves; and a signal processor device configured to receive the signals reflected from damage identification. The Operational loads Monitoring System (OLM) may comprise parametric models using flight parameter data. The static, fatigue and damage tolerance analysis (FDTA) subsystem may be configured to use parametric models using Finite element Models results and abacus. The databank storing a maintenance plan may comprise information relating to inspection periods and tasks of the structural platform or a plurality of platforms.
