Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of the most relevant methods for monitoring the integrity of structures made of isotropic (metals and alloys) and anisotropic (polymer composite) materials, which are widely used in the manufacture of parts and construction structures in the modern industry. Special attention is paid to ensuring the safe operation of aircraft structures, the use of onboard monitoring systems which will allow to reduce economic costs in the near future and to increase flying safety. The paper describes different variants of implementation of the onboard recording systems of data in the analysis of the actual state of the elements of the air frame. The advantages are shown, due to which the construction monitoring will be able to replace the existing system of provision and supporting of the airworthiness, implemented through periodic inspections.
