■概要 
 Recently Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) based optical fiber sensing systems have been applied widely 
for many civil structures. Contrary to the Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM), in FBG adapting 
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM), multiple points of more than 100 points on a single line can be 
monitored, that is suitable for long-term health monitoring of large civil structures. In the present 
paper, this TDM based FBG sensing system was installed at a deformed tunnel in a cold region. A total 
of 100 strain and deformation on the surface of lining concrete was measured with the optical 
interrogator at about 1 km away from the sensors. So far even under such a severe monitoring condition, 
continuous data acquisition with good accuracy has been successfully conducted.

        




■COMBINED STRESS WAVE TECHNIQUES FOR MONITORING OF FRACTURE IN CONCRETE SLABS
  S.Momoki, D.G.Aggelis, A. Hirama and T.Shiotani


■概要 
 In the present paper the mechanical and acoustic emission behavior of concrete slabs tested in four 
point bending is discussed. The specimens consisted of two layers of plain and vinyl fiber concrete 
with metal rebars. The aim was to assess the effect of fibers on the strength, as well as the cohesion 
obtained between the layers by different binding conditions. At different loading steps, ultrasound 
pulse velocity was measured and a three dimensional tomographic reconstruction of the internal 
condition of the specimen was obtained. Although cracking decreases the accuracy of source location, 
the results for any loading stage show good agreement between the acoustic emission event location, 
the ultrasound structure and the visual observation of the actual cracks.
