Online fatigue performance evaluation method for smart CFRP-strengthened steel beam structures incorporating FBG monitoring information

Steel beams are susceptible to fatigue damage under long-term cyclic loading. Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) strengthening technology has been widely adopted to improve the fatigue performance of steel beams due to its high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance,...

Optimal FBG Sensor Layout Assessment for Accurate Structural Feature Recognition of Composite Plates

Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are increasingly used in aerospace, rail transportation, and energy engineering owing to their high specific strength and corrosion resistance. However, their complex and interacting damage mechanisms, including delamination and m...

Baseline Response Characterization and Relative Vertical Displacement Reconstruction of Multi-Layer Asphalt Pavements Based on Quasi-Distributed FBG Monitoring Information

Internal responses of multilayer pavement structures are difficult to characterize using surface-based inspection alone. This study investigates a scaled multilayer pavement model instrumented with embedded quasi-distributed fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensing lines to obtain basel...
