Structural integrity
Aero engine efficiency, noise minimization and safety are among the primary concerns when designing new engines. Many new considerations arise when improving engine efficiency by using composite materials such as carbon fibre blades to maximise the strength to mass ratio.
New materials must stand up to the aerodynamic loading and conditions encountered in use and required by standards. Brüel & Kjær’s structural dynamics experience and state-of-the-art equipment enable unmatched real-time analysis and post-processing capabilities for those new materials.
Vibration data, acquired on ground or in flight, can be viewed in real-time or recorded for post-processing. Recorded data can be used to simulate any operational condition in a test lab for tasks like material or fatigue testing.
Solutions for:
- Identifying and animating load, fatigue and structural characteristics on ground or during in-flight conditions
- Troubleshooting of problems in structures with excessive vibration levels
- Monitoring modal parameters to ensure structural integrity
- Design verification and updating of modal parameters calculated from simulation models
