Abstract
A method and system for structural analysis of an object detects deviations between a physical object model and a predetermined three-dimensional model of the object. The physical object model is generated from scanned surface data of an object produced by a three-dimensional sensor. The physical object model is aligned with the predetermined three-dimensional model of the object to identify an interference between a location of the aligned physical object model and the predetermined three-dimensional model of the object that corresponds with any elastic deformation of an internal component within the predetermined three-dimensional model. An indicator of expected damage to the internal component arising from the elastic deformation is generated.
