Distributed sensing technique provides both the local information
and the global information of the structure!
2. Distributed long-gage FBG sensors
Distributed sensing does not
means simple measurements!
How to realize a nervous system of structures
1)Very dense distribution of using smart point sensors –useful ?
2)Continuous or partially continuous wiring of using line Macro
strain sensors including long –gauge sensors – natural !

Interpretation
No damage within sensor Si between t1 and t2
Increase in slope indicates damage within sensor Si
between t2 and t3

4. Conclusion
Distributed long-gage FBG sensors can be
used for both global and local information
monitoring
Distributed strain measurement can be used for
damage detection by utilizing developed damage
index (like slopes, neural axis locations)

More interesting topics will be investigated by
analyzing the measured distributed strains,
e.g., comparing distributed strain time
histories with traditional strain sensor outputs
