title: Damage detection by using FBGs and strain field pattern recognition techniques creator: Sierra Pérez, Julian creator: Güemes Gordo, Jesús Alfredo creator: Mujica, Luis Eduardo subject: Aeronautics description: A novel methodology for damage detection and location in structures is proposed. The methodology is based on strain measurements and consists in the development of strain field pattern recognition techniques. The aforementioned are based on PCA (principal component analysis) and damage indices (T 2 and Q). We propose the use of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) as strain sensors publisher: E.T.S.I.
