Aircraft structural integrity assessment system

摘要

A system is provided for collecting and interpreting data indicative of the effect of at least one of the plurality of forces acting on an aircraft or helicopter structure (112). The system comprises one or more structural moment detectors (111), and electronic circuitry (114) for processing and manipulating signals derived from the detector or detectors (111) in such a manner as to produce secondary signals indicative of the effect being monitored. In one embodiment, the electronic circuity associated with each structural moment detector (111) is provided in the same housing as the detector to form a unitary device termed a structural information detector.
