In diesem Paper wird ein absolut messendes faseroptisches Messsystem zur Bestimmung des Gap-Abstandes von niedrig reflektierenden losen und festen extrinsischer Fabry-Pérot Interferometer (EFPI) vorgestellt. Die häufigste Methode zur Bestimmung von Dehnungen oder Bewegungen durch EFPI-Sensoren ist eine kontinuierliche relative Ermittlung einer Veränderung mit einer nachträglichen Auswertung. Unterbrechungen in der Datenerfassung oder Fehler bei der Interferenzstreifen-Auswertung führen zu einer nicht abschätzbaren Messunsicherheit. Damit war es bis dato nicht möglich, eine absolute Veränderung von eingesetzten EFPI-Sensoren zu bestimmen. Mit dem an der BAM entwickelten Verfahren, ist dies jetzt möglich, die absolute Veränderung zu bestimmen. Dieses System namens 'EFPI-Scan' wird in dem Papier dargestellt werden.
Standardization in fibre-optic sensing for structural safety - activities in the ISHMII and IEC
(2015)
Fiber-optic sensors are increasingly established in the sensor market. Their advantages have unquestionably been verified by numerous demonstrations to enhance the operational performance of aged structures or to monitor the structural behavior of safety-relevant structures or their components. However, there are some barriers in use due to a lack of extensive standardization of fiber-optic sensors. This leads very often to restraints in the users community. The paper shows the status in international standardization of fiber-optic sensors as well as current activities in leading institutions such as IEC and ISHMII and others with the purpose of providing relevant standards for a broader use of selected fiber-optic sensor technologies.
Piezoresistive accelerometers use a strain-sensing element, generally made of semiconductor material, e.g., silicon to convert the mechanical motion into an electrical signal. This element is usually designed in form of a cantilever beam loaded with a mass. Acceleration causes bending of the beam, which produces a change of electrical resistance proportional to the applied acceleration.
Main advantages of piezoresistive accelerometers in comparison to other types, e.g., piezoelectric and capacitive, is their robust and highly dynamic behavior, which qualifies them for application in high impact shock applications. Mechanical damping is typically implemented with silicon oil in a way that the output signal is undistorted over a wide frequency range. These characteristics principally qualify them for the application in drop tests carried out at BAM, for which they are calibrated over the frequency range from 1 to 4 kHz. However, using silicon oil for damping, has the drawback of temperature dependent change of its viscosity, leading to temperature dependent deviation of the accelerometer’s sensitivity.
This study presents experimental results of the temperature behavior of a piezoresistive accelerometer with a dynamic range up to ±5000 g.
This type of accelerometer is applied for drop tests which are partially performed at temperatures of -40 or +100 °C.
