This paper presents a review of the research progress made on acoustic metasurfaces for hypersonic BL stabilization over the past two decades. Acoustic characteristics and their corresponding stabilization effects on the first and second modes are compared and discussed. Recent improvements in the mathematical modeling of acoustic metasurfaces have been highlighted. An outline of the theoretical, numerical, and experimental investigations is then provided.

In the aeronautical scenario, some typical damaging events that may occur during service life are runway bird-strike, tool drop and debris impact. The last two cases produce generally high-frequency vibrations that are usually well predicted by ultrasonic techniques. The impacts from birds on the other hand produces vibrations in the lower or modal frequency range. The present work is focused on the possible combination of two methodologies: the first one, related to impacts inducing low-frequency vibrations, is based on the implementation of a Neural Network, while the second one, related to impacts inducing higher-frequency stress waves, is based on an acoustic source </span>localization<span><span><span> approach. Both numerical and experimental analyses were implemented on the same isotropic aluminum<span> flat panel, and a possible combination of the experimental sensors arrangement will be discussed within the paper. The results have confirmed the positive performance of the neural network, opening to a more extended experimental campaign mainly oriented to the definition of the system precision, possible fault reconstruction and optimization in the data handling and reduction of computational effort. On the other hand, the main advantage of the acoustic emission formulation is that it does not require the knowledge of the wave </span></span>velocity profile<span> in the panel. Dependence of the guided wave velocity on the signal frequency for isotropic plates and, also on the wave </span></span>propagation direction<span> for anisotropic plates are the two major obstacles for acoustic source localization in a plate. Both these obstacles are avoided in this latter formulation.</span></span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":54553,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Aerospace Sciences","volume":"129 ","pages":"Article 100789"},"PeriodicalIF":9.6,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46227805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ISHM fundamentally relies on assessments and predictions of system health, including the early detection of failures and estimation of Remaining Useful Life (RUL). Model-based, data-driven or hybrid reasoning techniques can be utilized to maximise the timeliness and reliability of diagnosis and prognosis information. The benefits of ISHM include enhancing the maintainability, reliability, safety and performance of systems. The next evolution of the ISHM concept, Intelligent Health and Mission Management (IHMM), delves deeper into the utilization of on-line system health predictions to modify mission profiles to ensure safety and reliability, as well as efficiency through predictive integrity. This concept is particularly important for Trusted Autonomous System (TAS) applications, where an accurate assessment of the current and future system state-of-health to make operational decisions (with or without human intervention) is integral to both flight safety and mission success. IHMM systems introduce the capability of predicting degradation in the functional performance of subsystems, with sufficient time to dynamically identify which appropriate restorative or reconfiguration actions to take in order to ensure that the system can perform at an acceptable level of operational capability before the onset of a failure event. This paper reviews some of the key advancements and contributions to knowledge in the field of ISHM for the aerospace industry, with a particular focus on various architectures and reasoning strategies involving the use of artificial intelligence. The paper also discusses the key challenges faced in the development and deployment of ISHM systems in the aerospace industry and highlights the safety-critical role that IHMM will play in future cyber-physical and autonomous system applications (both vehicle and ground support systems), such as Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Traffic Management (UTM), Urban Air Mobility (UAM) and Distributed Satellite Systems (DSS).</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54553,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Aerospace Sciences","volume":"128 ","pages":"Article 100758"},"PeriodicalIF":9.6,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0376042121000622/pdfft?md5=39fa054abd1674f7bde4dc4680a2603d&pid=1-s2.0-S0376042121000622-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45211434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
