Fiber Bragg Grating Localization
Fiber Bragg gratings are known being immune to electromagnetic interference and emerging as Lamb wave sensors for structural health monitoring of plate-like structures. This is achieved by creating a periodic variation in the refractive index of the fiber core, which generates a. This research presents an advanced structural health monitoring (SHM) approach that combines fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors in self-referencing configuration for guided wave (GW) sensing and machine learning for damage detection in a plate structure. FBG sensors offer unique advantages such as. A fiber Bragg grating is a periodic or aperiodic perturbation of the effective refractive index in the core of an optical fiber (see Figure 1). Typically, the perturbation is approximately periodic over a certain length of e.
