Abstract
We propose a real-time monitoring method for shield tunnel boring machine cutter wear based on chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG). We use the chirped fiber Bragg grating as the wear detection sensor. When the wear occurs at the end face of the wear detection sensor (the end face of chirped fiber Bragg grating), the grating area of the chirped fiber Bragg grating will shorten with the occurrence of wear, which causes the bandwidth of the grating reflection spectrum to be narrowed, and the correlation theory of the fiber Bragg grating is used to calculate the wear rate. Experimental data shows that the sensor can survive in the actual operating conditions of the shield tunnel boring machine. After calibration, measurement accuracy can less than 1mm, and it can be used for real time wear detection of large machinery, such as shield tunnel boring machine.
