| Summary: | Title screen This paper describes research in the field of fiber optic nondestructive testing and structural health monitoring (SHM) of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) by the use of integrated optical fiber sensors (OFS) based on fiber Bragg gratings (FBG). Basic mathematical expressions that represent optical SHM of composites are presented. Some new relationships are derived by considering the non-linear character of the FBG-sensor response and the combined effect of temperature and deformation. Both linear and non-linear coefficients of the sensor elements, as well as combined strain–temperature coefficients before and after the sensors are embedded into the composite panels, have been obtained. Experimental results on the strain state of CFRP under static and dynamic loads demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed non-linear model for evaluating deformation in composites. It is shown that integrated OFS’s allow SHM of composite parts when mechanically loaded to failure, and that they can provide the actual level of strain in the composite parts in real time. SHM improves the operational safety of highly loaded and/or critical aerospace structures by providing real-time stress data, which would permit data-based decisions on overload conditions or imminent failure. Additionally, actual stress data from CFRP samples, or from real parts in use, could show whether the design of the parts should be changed to improve safety margins or to reduce weight.
