Paper Abstract
An interferometric fiber optic sensor using ordinary single-mode fibers is developed to detect acoustic emission (AE) for damage assessment of composite materials. This fiber sensor has been embedded in both graphite/epoxy and Kevlar/epoxy composite specimens and used to produce the fast direct correlation of acoustic emission with their concomitant forms of damage, such as matrix crack or material fiber rupture. Applications of the sensor for assessment of damage due to impact and out-of-plane loading are presented. Limitations of the sensor are also discussed.
