Appl. No.:

10/920616

Inventors:

David Graham - San Pedro CA, US
Domenic Maglieri - Williamsburg VA, US

International Classification:

B64C 30/00

US Classification:

24403500A

Abstract:

An aircraft comprises a fuselage, wings extending from the fuselage, and engine nacelles, wherein the fuselage has contours shaped to create shock and expansion zones to compensate for expansion zones and shocks produced by the wings and engine nacelles when the aircraft travels at supersonic speeds. The fuselage shape can be achieved by including a main fairing positioned along a bottom surface of the fuselage. The nacelles can be positioned adjacent to the fuselage and integral with the wings, and the aircraft can further include auxiliary fairings positioned along bottom surfaces of the nacelles.

International Classification:

G01N 21/88
G01N 21/954
G01N 21/95
F01D 21/00
G01B 11/24

Abstract:

An optical imaging and processing system includes an optical element and a processor configured to process the plurality of image frames to generate a three-dimensional model of at least a portion of the turbine component interior. The system may also include a display coupled to the processor to display the three-dimensional model. An operator may view and analyze the three-dimensional model on the display for defects. The processor may further be configured to automatically navigate the three-dimensional model to determine defects within the turbine component interior. The system may also include a repositioning device configured to reposition the optical element such that the optical element may capture the plurality of image frames from multiple vantage points within the turbine component interior.

International Classification:

G01N 21/88
G01N 21/954

Abstract:

An optical imaging and processing system includes an optical connection and an optical element disposed at a first end of the optical connection. The first end of the optical connection is configured to extend into a turbine component interior such that the optical element is disposed within the turbine component interior. The system also includes a photodiode array disposed at a second end of the optical connection, where the optical element is configured to transmit a video stream of the turbine component interior to the photodiode array as the optical element is moved within the turbine component interior between multiple vantage points. The system also includes a processor coupled to the photodiode array, wherein the processor is configured to process the video stream to generate a three-dimensional model of at least a portion of the turbine component interior without utilizing a previously defined three-dimensional model input of the turbine component interior.

International Classification:

G01M 15/14
G01M 99/00

Abstract:

Aspects of the present disclosure relate generally to a system and method for evaluating opportunities to extend operating durations. A system according to the present disclosure can include: a computing device in communication with a machine amongst a plurality of machines within a machine system, the machine being subject to a particular operating duration, wherein the computing device is configured to perform actions including: examining operating data for the machine; modeling future performance data for the machine; calculating an operating duration extension risk for the machine; determining whether the machine is eligible for an operating duration extension based on the examined operating data, the modeled future performance data, and the calculated operating duration extension risk; and calculating an extension readiness metric for the machine in response to the machine being eligible for the operating duration extension.
