SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DAMAGE PROPAGATION ESTIMATION

A method to estimate damage propagation is disclosed. The method includes making available a set of input parameters to a computational model, executing the computational model with defined changes within a range of an input parameter of the set of input parameters to define a range of at least one modeled output, receiving at least one signal responsive to and representative of a respective one of an actual sensor output, and estimating damage propagation based upon a correlation of the received signal to the modeled output.
