Abstract

Anahita Moghtadaei

Aircraft engine maintenance stands as a critical aspect of aviation safety and operational efficiency. Traditional methods often rely on periodic inspections and scheduled maintenance routines, which may not fully capture the dynamic conditions and po- tential anomalies within the engine. This article explores the integration of digital twin technology into aircraft engine mainte- nance processes, offering real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, and explanations of the role of human factors in aircraft engine maintenance are given and explain simulation capabilities to optimize maintenance strategies and enhance overall reli- ability. Through a comprehensive review of current practices and emerging trends, this article highlights the potential benefits and challenges of adopting digital twin technology in the aviation industry.
