  • Aircraft component qualification system and process
    Patent number: 11755791
    Abstract: A qualification system for gas turbine engine components includes a computer system configured to receive a set of measured parameters for each gas turbine engine component in a plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components, and determine a variation model based on the set of measured parameters. The computer system includes at least one simulated engine model configured to determine a predicted operation of each gas turbine engine component in the plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components, a correlation system configured to correlate variations in the set of parameters for each of the gas turbine engine components with a set of the predicted operations of each gas turbine engine, thereby generating a predictive model based on the variations. The computer system also includes a qualification module configured to generate a qualification formula based on the predictive model.

  • Aircraft component repair scheduling system and process
    Patent number: 11447271
    Abstract: A maintenance scheduling system for gas turbine engine components includes a computer system configured to receive a set of measured parameters for each gas turbine engine component in a plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components, and determine a variation model based on the set of measured parameters. Each of the gas turbine engine components is a single route component and has been utilized in a substantially identical single route. The computer system includes at least one simulated engine model. The simulated engine model is configured to determine a predicted operation of each gas turbine engine component in the plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components.

  • AIRCRAFT COMPONENT REPAIR SYSTEM AND PROCESS
    Publication number: 20200317370
    Abstract: A repair system for gas turbine engine components includes a computer system configured to receive a set of measured parameters for each gas turbine engine component in a plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components, and determine a variation model based on the set of measured parameters wherein each of the gas turbine engine components is an as-run component and has been exposed to a substantially identical general wear pattern. The computer system includes at least one simulated engine model. The simulated engine model is configured to determine a predicted operation of each gas turbine engine component in the plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components.
