Abstract:Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems for composites are being developed to improve the in-flight monitoring and safety of new aircraft structures. One of the emerging techniques for SHM which is becoming popular in the aircraft industry involves the use of optical fiber sensors due to their ease of integration, resistance to electromagnetic interference and low signal attenuation over long distances. This thesis describes a validated technique for optical fiber embedment and extraction of data from optic… Show more
