Aircraft structural maintenance is one of the critical operational activities to guarantee continued airworthiness. A proper maintenance strategy developed in design phase can save significant operational cost. Currently, the MSG-3 document and deterministic methodologies are widely applied as guidance to make scheduled maintenance tasks but face challenges with composite structures and structural health monitoring (SHM) technologies. The research objective is to determine flexible and cost-effective maintenance tasks for aircraft structures while maintaining an acceptable safety level. Two...
