Title: | Fiber optic extensometer for concrete deformation measurements | Authors: | Yuan, L Zhou, L Lau, KTA Jin, W Demokan, S |
Issue Date: | Jun-2002 | Source: | Review of scientific instruments, June 2002, v. 73, no. 6, p. 2469-2474 | Abstract: | A fiber optic extensometer based on a scanning white light Michelson interferometer is presented. The instrument employs a light emitting diode as the light source and a single mode fiber with predetermined gauge length as the extensometer sensor head. Light to and from the sensor head is transmitted through a single mode lead (i.e., in/out) fiber. The sensor performance is insensitive to the in/out fiber extensions. The fiber optic extensometer was applied to measure the compression and tension of concrete specimens. The measurement results compare well with that from a conventional extensometer. | Keywords: | Fibre optic sensors Michelson interferometers Deformation Spatial variables measurement Concrete |
