Abstract
After the performance of the IPCT wing deformation measurements on the Fairchild Metro II and on the Piaggio P 180, the aircraft manufacturer Evektor performed an assessment of the image based measurement techniques for wing deformation and flutter testing. For this assessment the papers and reports of the AIM project, as well as the data obtained by ground and flight tests of DLR [1], NLR [2] and Piaggio [3] were used. The image based measurement techniques used in AIM are compared to classical deformation measurement sensors like strain gauges and accelerometers. Furthermore, an assessment is done from the side of view of the effectiveness of this method. Finally, a summarized conclusion and some recommendations for further development are given.
