INTRODUCTION
 The airline industry is considered as one of the most unique businesses in the world which
suffers from a variety of complex operations associated with moving aircraft.
 Aircrafts are loaded with passengers or cargo over large distances and the scheduling of
flights, crews and maintenance.
 These all lead up to substantial costs measured in time and money. Aircraft maintenance forms
an essential part of an aircrafts airworthiness criteria, with its main objective being to ensure a
fully serviced, operational and safe aircraft.
 There is a substantial risk that the aircraft may be unable to take-off leading to passenger
dissatisfaction if maintenance is not correctly performed.
Project Description

Objectives:
1. Aircraft maintenance forms an essential part of an aircrafts airworthiness
criteria, with its main objective being to ensure a fully serviced, operational and
safe aircraft.
2. Assess the current state of the art health monitoring techniques and show that
established techniques exist which are viable for a landing gear actuator
application without the need for additional sensor equipment, placed upon the
actuators.
3. Demonstrate and assess the commercial benefits of incorporating health
monitoring systems into aircraft landing gears.
Health Monitoring System
A health monitoring system is a set of activities
undertaken to maintain a system in operable
condition and may be limited to an observation of
current system states, with maintenance and repair
being prompted by these observation.
Methodology
 Vibration Monitoring:- A machines vibration signature is a complex signal which is a
mixture of sinusoidal waveforms all of different amplitudes, frequencies and phase
differences which relate to fundamental rotational speed.
 Corrosion Monitoring:- Any fluid present in a process or in the operating environment
can lead to a corrosion of parts. Severe corrosion can then lead to a gradual or sudden
breakdown. A deterioration in performance caused by corrosion may however be detected
through other monitoring techniques.
 Performance Monitoring:-The advantages of performance monitoring are that it is
cheap and simple to implement because most of the required instrumentation already
exists. The main disadvantage is that most of the parameters which can be measured will
depend on some other variable making it difficult to calculate a performance indicator.
Predictive Maintenance
 Predictive maintenance techniques are designed to help determine the
condition of in-service equipment in order to estimate when maintenance
should be performed.
 health monitoring systems utilize a variety of data gained from on-board
sensors in order to extract meaningful information.
 This information when combined with expert knowledge will provide a
quantification of system/subsystem/component health.
 Tasks are performed only when warranted.
 Prevents unexpected equipment failure.
Predictive Maintenance System
Conclusion
It is envisioned that health monitoring systems
technology will play a crucial role in revolutionizing
aircraft maintenance practice. This proposed will not
come about entirely as a direct result of the
implementation of the technology. But rather by a
set of unique customized solutions and support
packages offered as a result of mature health
monitoring technology.
