Download or read book Strain and Temperature Measurement with Fiber Optic Sensors written by Regis J. Van Steenkiste and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1996-12-02 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FROM THE AUTHORS' PREFACE Sensors operating on interferometric principles and mounted inside optical fibers have recently been considered for measuring strain and temperature. Indeed, such sensors have successfully been employed for measuring pressure or temperature in fluids. Fiber optics sensors are especially adept for such measurements because sensors immersed in fluids can easily be calibrated by tests. Unfortunately, the use of fiber optic sensors inside solids is not as straightforward. Owing to the complex interactions between the sensor and the surrounding material, the relationship between the sensor output and the parameters of interest, namely the strain and temperature inside the material, cannot be determined by simple tests. And without the appropriate relationships, fiber optic sensors do not provide meaningful information. In general, the relationship providing the bridge between the sensor output and the engineering values of strain and temperature must be established via analytical models. The major aim of this book is to present such models for extrinsic and intrinsic Fabry-Perot sensors and for Bragg grating sensors embedded in or mounted on the surface of isotropic or anisotropic solids or immersed in fluids. The scope of the book is limited to the theory of fiber optic strain and temperature sensors. Accordingly, we have taken as our starting point the demodulated sensor signals. The hardware needed to produce these signals is not discussed. It is presumed that the reader is familiar with and has access to the sensor, light source, light detector and demodulator required for generating signals which can then be analyzed and interpreted by the methods presented in the book. The problem necessitates complex analytical developments. To assist the reader, the significant results are summarized in tables, and numerical examples are given illustrating the calculation procedures.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Optical Fiber Sensors written by Zujie Fang and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-08-10 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the latest development in optical fiber devices, and their applications to sensor technology. Optical fiber sensors, an important application of the optical fiber, have experienced fast development, and attracted wide attentions in basic science as well as in practical applications. Sensing is often likened to human sense organs. Optical fiber can not only transport information acquired by sensors at high speed and large volume, but also can play the roles of sensing element itself. Compared with electric and other types of sensors, fiber sensor technology has unique merits. It has advantages over conventional bulky optic sensors, such as combination of sensing and signal transportation, smaller size, and possibility of building distributed systems. Fiber sensor technology has been used in various areas of industry, transportation, communication, security and defense, as well as daily life. Its importance has been growing with the advancement of the technology and the expansion of the scope of its application, a growth this book fully describes.
Download or read book Characteristics of Extrinsic Fabry Perot Interferometric EFPI Fiber Optic Strain Gages written by David A. Hare and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years, resistance based strain sensors have been used for the measurement of strain. The resistance-type strain gage provides a very reliable and accurate measurement of strain, but as with any instrument it has its limitations. Extrinsic Fabry-Perot Interferometric (EFPI) fiber-optic strain sensors are now commercially available from several manufacturers. Fiber-optic strain gages have stated advantages over resistance based strain gages, including immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and leakage to ground. This paper presents a limited performance comparison between the (Fabry-Perot type) fiber-optic strain gage and the traditional resistance strain gage. The evaluation was limited to load testing at room temperature and apparent strain characterization cryogenically and at elevated temperatures.
