Structural Health Monitoring Using a New Type of Distributed Fiber Optic Smart Textiles in Combination with Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry (OFDR): Taking a Pedestrian Bridge as Case Study

Distributed fiber optic sensors (DFOS) have become a new method for continuously monitoring infrastructure status. However, the fiber’s fragility and the installation’s complexity are some of the main drawbacks of this monitoring approach. This paper aims to overcome this limitation by embedding a f...
