Abstract
This paper aims to realize the structural safety monitoring of protective engineering by conducting experimental research on the application of fiber optic grating sensors in high-speed penetration and damage monitoring. The study designs a miniaturized flexible fiber optic grating strain sensor for dynamic strain measurement during high-speed penetration and damage of the target body by projectiles, and verifies its measurement performance by comparing it with strain gauges. The experimental results demonstrate that the dynamic strain measurement results of the fiber optic grating strain sensor during high-speed penetration and damage are consistent with those of the strain gauges and the actual situation. The fiber optic grating strain sensor can achieve dynamic strain measurement during high-speed penetration and damage processes. Moreover, the variance of strain measurement results from the fiber optic grating strain sensors is much smaller than that of the strain gauges. This study validates that fiber optic grating strain sensors have the advantages of convenient installation, suitability for embedding, no need for electrical power, safety against explosions, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and strong environmental adaptability. They provide comparable results to strain gauges for measuring highspeed dynamic strains while overcoming the challenges associated with strain gauge installation difficulties, susceptibility to damage during embedding, high grounding requirements, poor environmental adaptability, and high surface bonding requirements. Therefore, fiber optic grating strain sensors are an important new technological approach that can replace strain gauges in future safety and health monitoring of protective engineering projects during wartime.
