CHARACTERISATION OF NEW EMBEDDED EMBROIDERED SENSORS FOR STRAIN MEASUREMENTS IN COMPOSITE MATERIALS
Abstract
The structural integration of new embedded embroidered sensors (EES) in fibre reinforced plastics (FRP) has some advantages by comparison to other measurement solutions like normal strain gauges or fibre bragg gratings (FBG). The ability to produce them in mass production and the less expansive data acquisition systems lead to lower costs by contrast with FBG. In comparison to strain gauges there is no weakening of the FRP after integrating the sensor.<BR />For the use of new embedded embroidered sensors knowledge about their characteristics is very important. Therefore some theoretical considerations and practical test were realised.
