A Review of the Synthesis, Performance, and Mechanism of Strontium Based Mechanoluminescence Material

Abstract:

Various types of sensors are used for structural health monitoring systems, some of these systems are strain sensors, vibration sensors, etc. which are based on the resistance of material whose change can be recorded via a microcontroller and plotted to understand the real-time behavior of a structure and the effects of various loads acting on it. But these sensors require expensive equipment and skilled personnel, external power, as well as the acquired data needs to be processed such that some sense can be made out of it. Thus, a new method of Structural Health Monitoring using Mechanoluminescence materials that don't require external power seems quite promising, but being in the initial stage of research and development it comes with its own set of challenges. This study tries to understand the synthesis methods available to synthesize Strontium-based Mechanoluminescence sensors, their working, the embedment processes, and their performance when subjected to loading.
