摘要

translaminar embedded fiber optic sensor system to monitor the structural integrity of composites has been developed. The focus of this development is the future application of the technology to composite helicopter flexbeams. These flexbeams are currently under development for use in bearingless main rotor hubs for military helicopters. This through thickness strain sensor system is far more sensitive than conventional in-plane embedded fiber optic sensors to ply delamination - the principal failure mode in composite flexbeams. The system was developed by combining Foster-Miller's unique fiber insertion technology with novel Bragg grating fiber optic sensors developed by United Technologies Research Center. The novel insertion technique minimized any possible negative impact of the sensors on the structural properties of the composite specimens tested. This will be important in application of the technology to helicopter flexbeams. This series of experiments has demonstrated that the embedded delamination sensors can be used to detect potential failures in advance of the edge delamination or crack propagation event. Delamination is a predominant failure mode in polymer matrix composites due the relatively low interlaminar strength of these materials. As a diagnostic device the through thickness sensor can provide the designer with not previously possible through thickness stress and strain data. This new sensing technique would have broad usefulness for interlaminar stress measurement in composite structures for helicopters, fixed wing aircraft, missiles, and submarines.
