3 NDI expertise at NLR Evaluation of NDI techniques Investigation of NDI reliability - POD, false calls NDI of hybrid/composite materials - Glare, CFRP, RTM Full scale tear-down and inspection - EPAF TDI of RNLAF F-16A aircraft J LHS wing TDI of Lockheed P-3C Orion - Airbus A380 Megaliner Barrel TDI Structural health monitoring (SHM) Level III assistance, training and examination of NDI personnel Modelling of NDI (CIVA nde ) 3
4 Contents Structural health monitoring (SHM) Principle and objectives of SHM NLR experience with SHM SHM techniques/sensors Applicability of SHM 4
5 Structural health monitoring (SHM) Long-term and in-service monitoring of the condition and damage state of vehicle systems in operation using advanced sensors that are permanently attached to the structure Main objectives: - Introduce condition-based structural maintenance (replacing scheduled maintenance) - Reduce the cost of ownership (inspection and maintenance) - Improve the system operational availability while maintaining current safety levels Additional objectives: Solve problems of poor accessibility and remove the human factor of inspector fatigue 5
6 Conventional scheduled maintenance Shearography Manual UT NH-90 tail fatigue test UT C-scan Pulsed thermography 6
7 Structural health monitoring (SHM) Kumar, Acellent Technologies 7
8 SHM features Part of on-board systems (centralised or distributed) with lowprofile sensors that are permanently attached to the structure Operation on-line during the flight (vehicle in operation) or off-line on the ground Static system that interrogate the structure at predetermined intervals (active measurement), or dynamic system that require continuous, reliable monitoring (passive measurement) Global inspection of large surface areas, or local inspection of highly critical areas (hot spots) 8
