“…In contrast, if the direction of the loading was transverse as in three-or four-point bending, the sensors were usually embedded in locations away from the neutral plane through the depth of the beams [64, 69, 78-80, 82, 83, 85]. Although a quasistatic loading was also used [56,73,98], the rectangular plates were used mainly in conjunction with an impact loading [32-43, 45, 47, 48, 50, 52, 53, 55, 59, 60, 63, 65]. Thus, the sensor locations were away from the neutral plane of the plates just like the beams under a quasi-static transverse loading.…”
