Structural health monitoring of an asymmetrical SMA reinforced composite using embedded FBG sensors

Embedded actuator and sensor technology provides accurate structural health monitoring and proper structural response of a structure at any harsh servicing situation. This paper describes the fabrication of a smart composite by embedding shape memory alloy (SMA) wires and fibre Bragg grating (FBG) s...
