DETECTION OF DAMAGES IN POLYMER MATRIX OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS WITH EMBEDDED FIBRE BRAGG GRATING SENSORS (A REVIEW)
(pp. 17-21)

Abstract. Cracks and delamination are dangerous and widely detectable damages in structural materials based on polymer matrix composite materials, such as carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP), are. These damages can appear and grow inside CFRP without any observably defects on a surface of the structural materials. They stay undetectable during diagnostic without special equipment. Fibre bragg gratings are attracting much interest as a deformation sensor and begin to be widely used in different measuring systems, especially in structural health monitoring systems. Shape of FBG spectra is very sensitive to nonuniform deformation. This feature allows to apply FBG for detecting material’s defects such as matrix cracks and delamination. The methods of detecting matrix cracks and delamination with FBG are presented in this review.

Keywords: fibre bragg grating, defect, crack, delamination, carbon fibre reinforced plastics, structural health monitoring, FBG, CFRP, SHM.
