Epoxy matrix composite strain sensing and cure monitoring
An adaptation of an extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (EFPI) strain sensor is described, which permits the state of cure of an epoxy matrix to be monitored, when the sensor is embedded in a polymeric matrix composite. By using a glass rod with a retroreflecting end for the target fiber in the EFP...
