Self-sensing FRP composites for infrastructure intelligence
I
ntelligent infrastructure has become increasing attractive
for civil engineering structures. On the other hand, fiber-
reinforced-polymer (FRP) composites are increasingly used
as structural materials and reinforcements, especially
in the aircraft industries and civil engineering, due to
their light weight, high strength, high stiffness and good
environmental compatibility with concrete. This work
highlights the health monitoring and smart material
technologies to ensure the safety and longevity of civil
infrastructure structures, as well as the latest developments
and research achievements. It is concerned with the
presentations of following: 1)- Background and Overall
Considerations: the necessity of achieving structural safety
and long-life maintenance and the requests of precise
monitoring technology are introduced. 2)-Advancements
of Sensing Technology: Base on the effect of global and
local sensing, the progress and current status of structural
health monitoring and damage identification technology
are discussed. Aiming at the bottleneck problem of
structural health monitoring technology, this section
introduces the concept of area-wise distributed sensing
technology, and advanced optical /carbon fiber based
long-gauge strain sensing technology. 3)-Advanced FRP
Technology: this section presents a look at some of the
novel research application of FRP composites. Latest
study works and practical engineering application are
present.4) Challenge of Infrastructure Intelligence and
Self-sensing FRP Composites: this section focuses on how
to establish an effective intelligence system and specific
solutions for various types of self-sensing FRP composites,
such as self-sensing FRP rods, sheets, cables, and grids.
Finally, the presentation concludes with brief comments
on future directions and opportunities of self-sensing FRP
composites for infrastructure intelligence.
