Title:

Development of Digital Twin Technologies for Aircraft Structural Life-Cycle Management

Agreement Number:

947419

Agreement Value:

$63,800.00

Agreement Date:

Mar 31, 2020 - Aug 31, 2020

Description:

This project aims to develop digital twin technologies for aircraft structural life-cycle management. The digital twin can mirror aircraft structural lifecycle by predicting its performance and long-term behaviors, and support the optimal maintenance decision making. Integrated with industrial Internet of Things, a digital twin ecosystem can reduce maintenance costs and downtime. The outcome of the research will enhance Canada’s global competitiveness in both the MRO and ISS sectors to face the challenges from emerging economies.

Organization:

National Research Council Canada

Expected Results:

In the short term, anticipated outcomes will be strengthened collaborations across industry, academia, and government to support research excellence. In the medium term, anticipated outcomes will be the development of new and potentially disruptive technologies with collaborators. In the long term, find collaborative solutions to public policy challenges and create stronger innovation systems.
