- This paper reports wireless structural health monitoring sensors for aircraft, using a new technique of dynamic thermoelectric generation to provide long term power. It is a complete system, and solves a critical requirement for Airbus of making in-flight distributed strain sensing possible without adding to the aircraft’s cabling. It has been successfully ground tested by Airbus as the next step towards commercial implementation in both tail and landing gear applications (contact: FoEREF@ic.ac.uk), and led to two further CleanSky projects, AmpWise (agreement #785495, €880k) and SmartWise (#886605, €350k).
