摘要： An apparatus for an aircraft having one or more aircraft wheel brakes, and a brake wear sensor configured to measure a wear state of a brake of the one or more aircraft wheel brakes, is disclosed. The apparatus includes a processor configured to determine a wear relationship between a wear state of the brake and a number of use cycles of the brake, determine a predicted wear state of the brake based on the wear relationship; determine a number of future use cycles of the brake based on a predicted condition of the brake, the predicted condition comprising the predicted wear state of the brake; and provide an indication of the determined number of the future use cycles to ground crew and/or a pilot of the aircraft, wherein the number of future use cycles is the number of use cycles for which the brake is allowed to be used, and a use cycle comprises all uses of the brake relating to a flight undertaken by the aircraft.

摘要： An apparatus and method is disclosed for determining a temperature characteristic at a first location on a wheel or a brake assembly of an aircraft landing gear. The temperature characteristic at the first location is determined using relationship information based on a first temperature at a second location of the wheel or the brake assembly of the landing gear, the relationship information representing a relationship between the temperature characteristic at the first location and the first temperature. Also disclosed is a method to determine the relationship information.
