摘要
The presence of process-induced strains induced by various manufacturing and operational factors is one of the characteristics of polymer composite materials(PCM).Conventional methods of registration and evaluation of process-induced strains can be laborious,time-consuming and demanding in terms of technical applications.The employment of embedded fibre-optic strain sensors(FOSS)offers a real prospect of measuring residual strains.This paper demonstrates the potential for using embedded FOSS for recording technological strains in a PCM plate.The PCM plate is manufactured from prepreg,using the direct compression-moulding method.In this method,the prepared reinforcing package is placed inside a mould,heated,and then exposed to compaction pressure.The examined technology can be used for positioning FOSS between the layers of the composite material.Fibre-optic sensors,interacting with the material of the examined object,make it possible to register the evolution of the strain process during all stages of polymer-composite formation.FOSS data were recorded with interrogator ASTRO X 327.The obtained data were processed using specially developed algorithms.
