Transformer model fuses ultrasonic and strain data for aerospace structural health monitoring

Researchers have developed a novel Transformer-based framework for multisensor data fusion in aerospace structural health monitoring. This framework integrates data from ultrasonic guided waves captured by piezoelectric transducers (PZT) and strain measurements from fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors. The system demonstrated significant improvements in predicting health indicators and localizing damage, achieving a nearly 60% performance boost over single-sensor methods and outperforming existing deep learning models.
