Heliwise - tool for helicopter advanced hums data analysis

Abstract

Purpose of this paper is to describe a new Software tool (Heliwise) based on Web technology (Server-Client architecture) developed by Leonardo Helicopters S.p.A. for the analysis of Health and Usage data, aimed to increase the aircraft availability (reduction of unexpected Aircraft On Ground’s) and to minimize the extraordinary maintenance activities. In this paper will be shown how Heliwise can achieve these results by implementing an architecture which is modular, flexible and suitable to operate in a global environment (so called HUMS technical community) where all data are shared.
