The Effects of Adhesive and Bonding Length on the Strain Transfer of Optical Fiber Sensors

Optical fiber sensors have been extensively adapted as structural health monitoring devices. Due to the existence of the adhesive layer, a portion of the strain is absorbed by the adhesive. As a result, the structural strain sensed by the optical fiber is underestimated and required to be corrected....
