Abstract
A method for detecting damage to one or more mobile blades of an impeller of an aircraft engine, includes measuring the speed of the engine, and for each blade acquiring, by a plurality of sensors, measurements of blade-tip passage times; calculating for each sensor, a deflection of the blade tip; extracting a dynamic component of deflection for each of the calculated deflections; detecting the number of functioning sensors; selecting the dynamic components to be processed based on the detecting step; determining, for at least one blade, a variation of the dynamic behavior of the blade for each functioning sensor; and, for each blade for which a variation of the dynamic behavior has been determined, identification of potential damage to the blade.
