Research on Strain Transfer of Embedded BOTDA Sensors Analyzed by FEM

Article Preview

Abstract:

in this paper, the theory of strain transfer of embedded BOTDA sensors was introduced. For the sensing fiber with coating and jacket used in project, its finite element model was built by ANSYS infinite element analysis software. And for the embedded fiber, the influences affected by elastic modulus and thickness of the fiber coating and jacket and elastic modulus of matrix material were analyzed. For the surface bonded fiber, the influences affected by elastic modulus, width and thickness of the bonding material were analyzed, and the results were compared with the results of theory.
