Diagnostics of wear in aeronautical systemsMaintenance costs associated with the transmissions and drive train greatly increase the maintenance burden and failure risk. Detection measurements fall under two general categories of vibration and particle detectors. The latter are more amenable to tracking wear. Wear debris analysis can supply a great deal of information such as: particle concentration, rate of change in concentration, composition, particle size and shape, principal metals, etc. It is not economically feasible to monitor all variables. At least one role of the lubrication and wear specialist is to provide guidance in selecting the most appropriate variables to monitor.
