The utility model belongs to the technical field of the structural health monitoring, especially, relate to a can monitor fissured distributed optical fiber sensing device of girder steel.
Background
With the planning and construction of a large number of urban infrastructures, China becomes the region with the fastest global economic development and the largest engineering construction scale. Against this background, the quality requirements of people on construction engineering are constantly increasing. Modern engineering faces the problems of more difficulty, high difficulty, large investment and the like, and building structures develop towards super high-rise, large space and large span. Therefore, the safety requirements of people are gradually increased. However, in the using stage of a building, due to a plurality of factors such as stress action, fatigue effect, environmental temperature and humidity, aging corrosion and the like, a plurality of signs are presented before many safety accidents occur, and structural damage and resistance performance decline all cause catastrophic accidents. At present, a steel beam structure is a framework structure of a building and is widely applied to civil engineering. Before an accident occurs, the construction steel beams are cracked. Therefore, the method has great significance for monitoring and researching the cracks of the steel beam.
The existing structure health monitoring technologies mainly comprise a ground monitoring method, a ground photogrammetry method, a GPS deformation monitoring technology, a satellite remote measuring technology and the like, however, the methods are high in cost, only can be used for monitoring the surface health, and cannot be used for effectively monitoring the internal health. The optical fiber sensor has the advantages of small volume, high precision, electromagnetic interference resistance, remote measurement and the like, and is taken as a first-choice sensitive element for structural health monitoring. At present, three types of optical fiber sensors for structural health monitoring are mainly used, namely a Fabry-perot (Fabry-perot) cavity interference type sensor, a Fiber Grating (FG) sensor and a Brillouin scattering (Brillouin scattering) sensor. In contrast, the brillouin scattering sensor is not only simple in structure, but also can realize remote and distributed measurement.
Brillouin time-domain analysis (BOTDA) technology, which is one kind of Brillouin scattering, has been widely applied to structural health monitoring, and has the advantages of high sensitivity, long distance, distribution and the like. However, crack monitoring is currently achieved primarily through single mode fiber brillouin peak change detection. The method has two disadvantages, firstly, the single-mode optical fiber is a total internal reflection waveguide structure with a fiber core doped with germanium ions, and when the temperature is too high, the thermal motion of the ions can cause the waveguide structure to be invalid. Second, external disturbances can cause peak instability to a large extent, and thus cracks cannot be accurately predicted. Therefore, it is very important to research and use special optical fibers to replace single modes and improve the measurement method for monitoring the structural health of the steel beam.
