The Longitudinal Force Measurement of CWR Tracks with Hetero-Cladding FBG Sensors: A Proof of Concept
A new method has been proposed to accurately determine longitudinal additional force in continuous welded rail (CWR) on bridges via hetero-cladding fiber Bragg grating (HC-FBG) sensors. The HC-FBG sensor consists of two FBGs written in the same type of fiber but with different cladding diameters. The HC-FBGs have the same temperature sensitivity but different strain sensitivity because of the d...
متن کاملFibre Bragg Sensors Compared with Electrical Strain Gauges for Use in Force Measurement - Prospects and Potentials
− This article deals with the technical properties of fiber Bragg gratings with regard to their use as the strain-sensitive element in force transducers. Electrical strain gages are widely used in modern, precise force transducers. The electrical strain gage provides both outstanding technical properties and cost-effectiveness. Besides the electrical strain gage, the measurement principle of fi...
متن کاملPipeline Leak Localization Based on FBG Hoop Strain Sensors Combined with BP Neural Network
Pipelines function as blood vessels serving to bring life-necessities, so their safe usage is one of the foremost concerns. In our previous work, a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) hoop strain sensor with enhanced sensitivity was developed to measure the pressure drop induced by pipeline leakage. Some hoop strain information during the leakage transient process can be extracted from the amount of FBG ...
متن کاملA Bi-Directional Out-of-Plane Actuator by Electrostatic Force
Presented in this paper is a bi-directional out-of-plane actuator which combines the merits of the electrostatic repulsive principle and the electrostatic attractive principle. By taking advantage of the electrostatic repulsive mode, the common “pull-in” instability can be lessened to enlarge the displacement, and by applying the electrostatic attractive mode, the out-of-plane displacement is f...
متن کاملInvestigating the Longitudinal Optical Conductivity in Three-Layer Graphene Systems with Composes Mono-Bi-Bi and Bi-Mono-Bi and Bi-Bi-Mono
The longitudinal optical conductivity is the most important property for graphene-baseddevices. So investigating this property for spatially separated few-layer graphene systems analytically and numerically is the main purpose of our study. Each layer can be mono- or bi-layer graphene. The density-density correlation function has been screened by the dielectric function using the random p...
