A Case Study on the Detection and Prognosis of Internal Leakages in Electro-Hydraulic Flight Control Actuators by Antonio Carlo Bertolino, Andrea De Martin, Giovanni Jacazio, Massimo Sorli

“…Electro-hydraulic servo-actuators (EHSAs) are currently considered the state-of-the art solution for the control of the primary flight control systems of civil and military aircraft. Combining the expected service life of a commercial aircraft with the fact that electro-hydraulic technology is employed in the vast majority of currently in-service aircraft and is planned to be used on future platforms as well, the development of an effective Prognostic and Health Management (PHM) system could provide significant advantages to fleet operators and aircraft maintenance, such as the reduction of unplanned flight disruptions and increased availability of the aircraft. …”
