A long period grating (LPG) mechanically imprinted in a microstructured polymer optical fibre (mPOF) is embedded in a carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) unidirectional laminate. Processing steps were established in order to ensure that mPOF does not suffer significant degradation. The strain and temperature responses of the embedded mPOF-LPG were then investigated.
This study discusses the development of advanced composite materials with sensing
capabilities obtained from the embedment of long period gratings in microstructured plastic
optical fibres (mPOF-LPG). The mPOF-LPG was embedded in a carbon fibre reinforced
polymer (CFRP) unidirectional laminate manufactured in autoclave. Processing steps were
established in order to insure that mPOF does not suffer significant optical and structural
degradation. The strain and temperature responses of the embedded mPOF-LPG were
investigated.
