A system and method for analyzing structural heath data includes a structural body, structural health sensors, and first and second computer systems. The structural health sensors are configured to sense data regarding structures of the structural body. The first computer system is configured to collect the sensed data as the structural health data. The second computer system that includes a user interface and display, and is configured to receive the structural health data and provide interactive transformational analysis of the structural health data. The interactive transformational analysis provides, on the display of the second computer system, a visual representation of the structural health data over time.

A landing gear system includes a landing gear collar and a strut assembly supported by the landing gear collar. The strut assembly includes a piston that is adjustable between a fully extended position and a fully compress position. The landing gear system further includes a rotary encoder and a controller. The rotary encoder rotates in response adjusting the piston and to outputs a data value in response to its rotation. The controller is in signal communication with the rotary encoder and determines a stroke of the piston based on the data value output from the rotary encoder.

An aircraft monitoring system includes a sensor operatively connected to at least a portion of an aircraft, a memory configured to store instructions, and a processor disposed in communication with the memory and the sensor. The processor, upon execution of the instructions, is configured to display a graphical representation of the portion of the aircraft reflecting real-time monitoring activity, and display a monitoring controller. A method of providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for an aircraft monitoring system includes displaying a graphical representation of at least a portion of an aircraft's geometry reflecting real-time monitoring activity. The method includes displaying one or more monitoring controllers. Each monitoring controller is associated with at least a portion of an aircraft monitoring system and a location on the aircraft's geometry.

At least one baseline structural interrogation of a physical structure is performed in one or more corresponding baseline conditions of the structure. The one or more baseline conditions are stored, and one or more current conditions are sensed. It is determined whether a difference between the one or more current conditions and the one or more baseline conditions satisfies at least one threshold deviation criterion. A current structural interrogation of the structure is performed in response to determining that the difference between the one or more current conditions and the one or more baseline conditions satisfies the least one threshold deviation criterion. An indication that the at least one threshold deviation criterion is not satisfied is output in response to determining that that the difference between the one or more current conditions and the one or more baseline conditions does not satisfy the at least one threshold deviation criterion.

A system and method includes a structural body, a plurality of structural health monitoring (SHM) sensors, and first and second computer systems. The structural body includes a plurality of structures. The SHM sensors are configured to sense structural health data for a plurality of zones of the structures. The first computer system is configured to collect the structural health data from the SHM sensors. The second computer system includes a display and is configured to receive the structural health data from the first computer system and groups the zones into a plurality of structural regions, and groups the plurality of structural regions into at least one structural area. The display is configured to provide a visual representation of a structural region health of a first one of the plurality of structural regions based on the structural data for respective ones of the zones within the first one of the plurality of structural regions.

Interactive analysis of structural health data

A system for filtering data according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a data module configured to access vehicle data in a database according to a query input, a display module configured to display the vehicle data in an environment, and a query module configured to generate the query input according to an interactive list of filter statements. Each filter statement in the interactive list of filter statements is selectable from a group of filter types. The group of filter types is configured to dynamically update in response to at least one selection from the group of filter types. A method of filtering data is also disclosed.
