Abstract:
This presentation discusses the evolution of SMART Layer, based SHM system from a targeted inspection aid to a key enabler of IVHM and CBM strategies. Lessons learned from fielded rotorcraft applications are discussed, along with a practical path for integrating the SHM system components into both sustainment programs and future aircraft designs. The role of automation, data management, and health-state awareness in supporting aircraft readiness and lifecycle optimization is will also be discussed.
