Abstract

In this paper, we present results of our automated data acquisition system for temperature and strain measurements in composite materials. The objective is to provide electronic instrumentation in a plate of carbon fiber and to automate the measurement process in order to compare and analyze the results obtained through interferometric sensors based on embedded optical fiber. The acquisition system is developed to operate in quasi-real time and connected to a PC for providing the temperature and strain maps in the material. Details on performance, system design and the results obtained are given.
