In the aeronautical industry, the advancement and implementation of new technologies are fundamental for developing and optimizing processes and monitoring systems. One of the most significant phenomena is mechanical vibrations, which can affect both the structural integrity of aircraft and the physical and mental well-being of passengers and crew. A primary source of vibrations in commercial aircraft is the propulsion system. In recent years, non-invasive methods have been developed to identify vibrational parameters in aircraft engines, highlighting the need for advanced monitoring systems. Within the experimental rotodynamic analysis framework, piezoelectric sensors present limitations such as vulnerability to electromagnetic fields and complex connections. These limitations are addressed by implementing fibre Bragg grating (FBG) sensor technology. This study aims to present the procedure and challenges involved in research focused on the implementation of new technologies in the field of engineering education, particularly regarding the evaluation of the use of FBG sensors in rotodynamic applications. The methodology adopted for this research includes the literature review process, theoretical analysis, and the experimental design. As part of the dissemination of this work, courses and workshops were implemented for undergraduate students, aiming to support the training of engineers and promote the development of researchers. These workshops provide theoretical and practical experience on the methodological process for the application of FBG sensor technology, offering a clear example to ensure the validity and reliability of results in scientific development. Preliminary results obtained through the application of the defined methodology indicate that FBG sensors exhibit favorable characteristics for their application in rotodynamic conditions, demonstrating their potential functionality for monitoring vibratory parameters in real rotodynamic systems. It is expected that this analysis will have a significant impact on the training of engineering students and the dissemination of research opportunities across a wide range of disciplines, including composite materials, structural dynamics, and industrial machinery monitoring, among others. Additionally, it aims to demonstrate the theoretical-experimental development necessary to address scientific research problems.
