REMAINING USEFUL LIFE (RUL) OF AEROSPACE INDUSTRY

Novel Flaw Classification and Profiling Algorithms using Aerospace Multi Frequency Eddy Current Non Destructive Testing Data

Project Overview

Aerospace nondestructive testing (NDT) is performed to determine the structural integrity of aircraft structure. It is mandatory for safety of passenger and aircraft that periodic testing of aircraft structures must be carried out for damages such as corrosion and cracks. Currently aircrafts Non Destructive Testing (NDT) is performed at Pakistan according to OEMs instructions. NDT signal measurements are sent to aircraft manufacturers in writings, who then examine the results and suggest the subsequent corrective action.
