PAHMIR - Preventive Aircraft Health Monitoring for Integrated Reconfiguration

Reconfiguration, Error Detection and Diagnostic Systems for the Aircraft Cabin and Cabin Systems

Contents

Both technologies are enabled today due to the availability of small, powerful and inexpensive sensors that can be used
a) to automatically identify and manage different cabin configurations and
b) to build error detection and diagnostic systems also economical for smaller (less expensive) components in cabin systems.

The tasks of the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences in the research cooperation with Airbus was:
1.) basic studies based on in-service data,
2.) general research on cabin reconfigurations and
3.) the development of a demonstrator of an error detection and diagnostic system that has to be installed into the Maintenance Technology Test Center (MTTC) (see picture) at Airbus, Hamburg.
