Tests & Validation
When Reality Confirms Your Models
Strain Measurement on Large-Scale Structures
Monitor the actual behavior of your structures on a 1:1 scale
During static load tests, several dozen measurement points are monitored simultaneously to characterize the structure’s deformations. The measurements taken make it possible to visualize how the structure changes during each loading phase and to verify its actual behavior.
By synchronizing multiple laser trackers within a single reference frame, G2METRIC provides a comprehensive view of the airframe’s deformation with a high level of precision. The data obtained is a key element in validating structural calculations and certifying aircraft.
In-flight Deformation Measurement
When the aircraft takes off, the measurement continues—Qualification under real-world conditions
Flight testing is the final step in validating an aircraft. Using onboard photogrammetry, G2METRIC precisely tracks the movements and deformations of the wings during all phases of flight.
Dozens of targets mounted on the airframe are analyzed in real time to reconstruct the actual behavior of the wing under aerodynamic loads. This technology provides essential data to validate structural calculations and ensure the aircraft meets its expected performance standards.
Deformation of Panels Under Pressure
When the pressure rises, every millimeter counts
To ensure a structure’s reliability, it is essential to accurately measure its deformation during pressurization phases. Using its 3D metrology solutions, G2METRIC monitors changes at control points distributed around critical areas of the panel and the structure.
The measured displacements are analyzed in real time to validate the structure’s actual behavior, identify any deviations, and confirm the computational models. This reliable and precise insight is essential for the most demanding qualification programs.
