Research status of fiber-reinforced polymer-based composites with structural health monitoring function
Fiber-reinforced polymer-based composites have been widely used in many industries for their excellent mechanical properties.However,it is difficult to analyze the integrity and durability of fiber-reinforced polymer-based composites due to their own structural characteristics as well as the complexity of the environment and loading conditions they are subjected to.The use of structural health monitoring(SHM)techniques to monitor the structural condition of composites improves the safety and reliability of composite structures and has been widely used in many industries.This paper reviewed the SHM methods and their applications for fiber-reinforced polymer-based composites based on electrical resistance sensing,and gave an outlook on the development of SHM for fiber-reinforced polymer-based composites.
