Field Deployable Fiber Bragg Grating Strain Patch for Long-Term Stable Health Monitoring Applications

A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain patch specially adapted for long-term and high-strain applications has been developed and characterized. The design concept for the patch is based on a glass-fiber reinforced plastic (gfrp) carrier material. The developed concept for the FBG integration into the ca...
