Distributed optical sensing in adhesively bonded joints and polymer matrix composite laminates, mode II fracture toughness, bonded composites

<p>As the use of polymer matrix composites for structures increases, there is a growing need for monitoring these structures. Distributed strain sensing using optical fibers shows promise for monitoring composite structures due to optical fiber's small size, light weight, and ability to o...
