Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a system for monitoring structural health of bonded components 112/114 includes an energy-harvesting device 122. The system also includes a damage-detection module 120 powered by electrical energy from the energy-harvesting device 122. Further, the system includes electrically-conductive ink 126 applied onto the bonded components 112/114 and across an interface 116 between the bonded components 112/114. The electrically-conductive ink 126 forms an electrical circuit 127 with the damage-detection module 120. Additionally, the system includes a visual-indication device 124 electrically coupled with the damage-detection module 120. The visual-indication device 124 is configured to visually indicate damage to the bonded components 112/114 in response to receipt of electrical energy. The damage-detection module 120 is configured to detect a break in the electrically-conductive ink 126 and to transmit electrical energy from the energy-harvesting device 122 to the visual-indication device 124 in response to detecting the break in the electrically-conductive ink 126.
