ASTYANAX
The research project ASTYANAX is focused on the development of a reliable methodology for the application of a Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) system on an aerodyne (rotorcraft and airplane platforms) structure. The exploitation of the results coming from a previous project promoted and financed by EDA (HECTOR) will be considered hereafter: the goal is to extend the developed methodologies, currently defined and tested only on a specimen representative of a real part of a helicopter fuselage, on an existing air-vehicle structure, by including the needed details and characteristics of a real machine (cost analysis, certification, etc.).
The main objective is to examine the possibility, and assess the requirements, to extend the HECTOR methodology to an air-vehicle fuselage, considering also in this case a rotary wing system, Mi-8/17 helicopter, as air-vehicle type. AGH is responsible mainly for the sensor network design and optimization including the definition of requirements for communication systems and hardware. Moreover, AGH is involved in the analysis of different types of sensor useful for the SHM application, with particular attention on FBG optical sensors and non-electrical devices.
