CFRP Smart Panel — Bridge Reinforcement Monitoring

CFRP Reinforcement Smart Composite

Case Overview

UW-FBG arrays were embedded in carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) smart panels for bridge reinforcement. The integrated sensors provided real-time strain data on the reinforcement effectiveness, enabling quantitative assessment of structural strengthening outcomes.

Application Value

Integrated CFRP reinforcement and monitoring, quantitative assessment of strengthening effectiveness.
