Isogeometric simulation of turbine blades for aircraft engines

Isogeometric analysis is a novel approach to numerical simulation that has the potential to bridge the gap between geometric design and numerical analysis. It uses the same exact geometry representation in all stages of the product development. In this paper we present recent results which demonstrate the competitiveness of the new concept in an industrial environment, more precisely, in the ch...

Volumetric Geometry Reconstruction of Turbine Blades for Aircraft Engines

We present a framework for generating a trivariate B-spline parametrization of turbine blades from measurement data generated by optical scanners. This new representation replaces the standard patchbased representation of industrial blade designs. In a first step, the blade surface is represented by a smoothly varying family of B-spline curves. In a second step, the blade is parametrized by a t...

Anomaly Detection in Aircraft Gas Turbine Engines

Symbolic identification for fault detection in aircraft gas turbine engines

This article presents a robust and computationally inexpensive technique of component-level fault detection in aircraft gas-turbine engines. The underlying algorithm is based on a recently developed statistical pattern recognition tool, symbolic dynamic filtering (SDF), that is built upon symbolization of sensor time series data. Fault detection involves abstraction of a language-theoretic desc...

Fundamentals of the Deep Rolling of Compressor Blades for Turbo Aircraft Engines

The weakening of the fatigue strength of turbine blades due to local impa caused by foreign objects (Foreign Object Damage FOD) represents i3 safety risk in modern aviation. It is possible to employ deep rolling to courat component weakening in a particularly effective way. In order to derive a possible process parameter-set in advance, fundamental knowledge regarding the elastic and plastic de...
