Fiber optic distributed acoustic and vibration sensing for condition monitoring of infrastructure and hazard monitoring applications
- Fiber optic Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is an emerging method for many different monitoring purposes, enabling a spatially and temporally resolved collection of acoustic and vibration information over many kilometers. DAS, thus being a "dynamic" sensing technique, allows for online condition monitoring and the detection and localization of threats or hazards in real time via characteristic acoustic/vibration states and their changes or via occurring anomalous signals, respectively. At BAM, we have employed this technology for a number of different applications of monitoring of large infrastructures, e.g., bridges, pipelines, submarine power cables or railway tracks. Currently, we are investigating the use of DAS for further innovative uses, which aim at facilitating the energy transition, enabling "smart" infrastructure and providing the basis for comprehensive hazard monitoring and warning systems, respectively.

Our research fields include fiber optic borehole monitoring in the context of hydrogen storage caverns, traffic and road monitoring, using DAS for earthquake monitoring in urban areas for disaster management and long-term monitoring of large-scale subsidence caused by mining activities. Another new topic is structural health monitoring in concrete structures in the framework of the FSP Security. In this talk, we will first briefly present the basics and capabilities of DAS. Then, we will portray our previous and current works related to this technology and show some attractive results. Finally, we will discuss our upcoming projects on exciting new applications of DAS.…
