A system is provided for structural load assessment of an aircraft. An approximator may receive parameters related to a ground or flight event and calculate the resulting response load on the aircraft using a machine learning algorithm and a structural dynamics model of the aircraft. An analysis engine may compare the calculated response load to a corresponding design load for determining the structural severity of the ground or flight event on the aircraft. A maintenance engine may then automatically perform or trigger a maintenance activity for the aircraft in instances in which the structural severity of the ground or flight event causes a limit exceedance state of the aircraft or at least one structural element thereof.
