Safety is paramount in aerospace industry. Shims play a critical role in joining components of the propulsion and airframe subsysterms. Instrumented (intelligent) shims can provide information about joint and component integrity, valuable insight that will help improve aircraft safety, increase their reliability, and reduce the operation costs. This project is part of an integrated development plan undertaken by Shimco to introduce Intelligent Shims (IntelliShim) to the aerospace market. These devices will integrate mechanical gap management, sensing, and energy harvesting into one component. The specific goal of this project is to develop shim-embedded sensors to serve the health monitoring needs of the aerospace market.Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are an ideal technology platform to meet this need. The fabrication technology is well developed, stable, and cheap. The goal of this project is to develop low-power piezoelectric and / or electrostatic shim-embedded MEMS force, moment, and temperature sensors that can be integrated into shims without undermining the joint mechanical integrity.

安全行业的安全至关重要。 Shims在加入推进和机身子宫次子的组件中起着至关重要的作用。仪器（智能）垫片可以提供有关联合和组件完整性的信息，有价值的见解，这些信息将有助于提高飞机安全，提高其可靠性并降低运营成本。该项目是Shimco为将智能Shims（Intellishim）引入航空航天市场的综合发展计划的一部分。这些设备将将机械间隙管理，传感和能量收集整合到一个组件中。该项目的具体目标是开发垫片的传感器，以满足航空航天市场的健康监测需求。MicroelectromenicalSystems（MEMS）是满足此需求的理想技术平台。制造技术发达，稳定且便宜。该项目的目的是开发低功率压电和 /或静电垫垫圈的内存力，力矩和温度传感器，而无需破坏关节机械完整性。
