AOARD 09_ FINAL REPORT Advancement of Reference-free Diagnosis for Aging Aircraft Monitoring
نویسنده
چکیده
The goal of this project is to develop a new NDT technique/algorithm based on Lamb waves, in which damage can be detected “without relying on past reference data.” In particular, a NDT methodology will be formulated for detecting defects such as crack, corrosion and delamination commonly found in aircraft. The proposed concept of “reference-free” damage diagnosis attempts to address some of the fundamental technical hurdles that have to be overcome before NDT systems can be deployed for continuous monitoring of aircraft. The intent of the present approach is not to disregard useful prior knowledge or information gained but to relax explicit dependency on baseline data so that the proposed methodology can be made more attractive for aircraft monitoring during its normal operation. By incorporating the proposed approach to the conventional NDT techniques, it is envisioned that more reliable damage diagnosis can be achieved. New reference-free damage diagnosis techniques developed in this study are:

بررسی شرایط هواشناختی یخزدگی هواپیما در دو بررسی موردی (فرودگاه مهرآباد-تهران)
Ice can form on aircraft surface at 0° C or colder temperatures when liquid water is present. This can happen both on the ground and at the flight levels of the aircraft. Aircraft icing has not only an impact on flight safety but has also an economic impact. According to the report of research department of the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration), from 1982 to 2001, 13% of accidents due to ai...
متن کاملSerum Free Light-chain Assay for the Diagnosis, Management, and Prognosis of Multiple Myeloma
In recent decades, new serum biomarkers have been developed for routine laboratory practice, such as assaying serum free light chains and more recently, assaying immunoglobulin heavy and light chain isotypes (Hevylite). In this work, we highlight the interest of new biomarkers (Hevylite Test) in the management of monoclonal gammopathies because of the technical advantages it confers and the se...
متن کاملProliferating Pilomatricoma: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Proliferating pilomatricoma is a distinctive rare variant of pilomatricoma first described in 1997.Very few cases of proliferating pilomatricoma have been reported in the literature until date. This report is a case of 65 years old male presenting with hard nodular lump on the right side of neck slowly increasing in size for the last 8 months. Wide excision of the lump was performed with clear ...
