Proposal of metal bellows-based fiber Bragg grating accelerometer

A metal bellows-based fiber Bragg grating(FBG) accelerometer is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The optical fiber(containing the FBG) is pre-tensioned,and the two ends of the optical fiber are fixed directly from the shell to the inertial mass. In this design,the FBG is uniformly tensioned to obtain a constant strain distribution over it. By employing this configuration,the FBG always has a sharp reflection characteristic with no broadening in its reflection spectrum during wavelength shifting. Dy...     

地震和波流作用下海底悬跨管线模型实验研究

利用水下地震-波流联合模拟实验系统研究了海底管线在波浪、水流和地震作用下的动态响应特征。实验中考虑了有无地震作用、悬跨长度、波浪高度、水深、水流速度以及是否满管状态等因素。通过DDP动态数据后处理软件对实验结果进行处理分析,得到海底悬跨管道的动态响应特性。实验结果表明:在浅海海域,悬跨管线的动态反应受波浪及水深变化的影响不明显,悬跨长度是影响管道动态响应的主要影响因素;悬跨管线在地震与波流共同作用下的反应与仅地震作用下的应变存在差别;在波浪力作用下,空管时管线的应变要小于满管时的情况。     

Compact FBG diaphragm accelerometer based on L-shaped rigid cantilever beam

A compact fiber Bragg grating(FBG) diaphragm accelerometer based on L-shaped rigid cantilever beam is proposed and experimentally demonstrated.The sensing system is based on the integration of a flat diaphragm and an L-shaped rigid cantilever beam.The FBG is pre-tensioned and the two side points are fixed,efficiently avoiding the unwanted chirp effect of grating.Dynamic vibration measurement shows that the proposed FBG diaphragm accelerometer provides a wide frequency response range(0-110 Hz) and an extremely high sensitivity(106.5 pm/g),indentifying it as a good candidate for embedding structural health monitoring and seismic wave measurement.     

Flextensional fiber Bragg grating-based accelerometer for low frequency vibration measurement

The intelligent structural health monitoring method,which uses a fiber Bragg grating(FBG) sensor,is a new approach in the field of civil engineering. However,it lacks a reliable FBG-based accelerometer for taking structural low frequency vibration measurements. In this letter,a flextensional FBG-based accelerometer is proposed and demonstrated. The experimental results indicate that the natural frequency of the developed accelerometer is 16.7 Hz,with a high sensitivity of 410.7 pm/g. In addition,it has a br...

基于弯曲伸张结构的光纤光栅传感研究

以民用工程结构如桥梁、大坝、高层建筑的健康检测为背景, 采用光纤光栅传感器实现对结构性能的实时监测和诊断, 及时发现结构的损伤以评估结构的安全性. 提出了一种可用于光纤光栅传感的新型弯曲伸张弹性敏感结构, 可实现对压力、应变以及加速度的准确测量. 对该结构弯梁腹部处的应变进行了理论分析和实验验证, 结果表明弯梁腹部处各点的应变与该弯曲伸张结构在竖直方向上所受压力、应变以及加速度大小成线性关系. 其最大的优点是同样灵敏度下体积小, 在井下等横向尺寸受限、又要测量纵向加速度的情况下, 梁式传感结构很可能无法使用, 该新型弯曲伸张型弹性敏感结构可作为弹性元件用于光纤光栅压力、应变、称重以及加速度传感器的设计.
