Xiao, Y. (author), Rans, C.D. (author), Zarouchas, D. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)Embedding fiber optic sensors (FOSs) within parts for strain measurement is attracting widespread interest due to its great potential in the field of structural health monitoring (SHM). This work proposes a novel method of embedding FOSs using capillaries within solid structures and investigates fiber positions and orientation uncertainties...journal article 2023
