A model to assess the importance of runway and taxiway particles to aircraft engine compressor deterioration

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering
During service, civil turbofans experience environmentally induced deterioration. Predicting this in a digital service twin model is computationally challenging due to the need to model both deterioration mechanisms and environmental conditions.
