Review on Strain Monitoring of Aircraft Using Optical Fibre Sensor [PDF]
Structural health monitoring of aircraft assures safety, integrity and reduces cost-related concerns by reducing the number of times maintenance is required. Under aerodynamic loading, aircraft is subjected to strain, in turn causing damage and breakdown.

A simple method for fabricating phase-shifted fibre Bragg gratings with flexible choice of centre wavelength [PDF]
A simple technique for fabricating phase-shifted fibre Bragg gratings (PSFBGs) without the use of a phase-shifted phase mask is presented. Two, 3-mm long, standard fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) were inscribed sequentially in singlemode fibre at the same

Regenerated Fibre Bragg Gratings [PDF]
Strong regenerated gratings (~18dB, L = 5cm) that can withstand temperatures in excess of 1200°C have been produced. These gratings have a number of potential applications from monitoring furnace temperatures in various fields, to high intensity optical field-resistant gratings for high peak power fibre lasers.

A High-Temperature Fiber Sensor Using a Low Cost Interrogation Scheme
Regenerated Fibre Bragg Gratings have the potential for high-temperature monitoring. In this paper, the inscription of Fibre Bragg Gratings (FBGs) and the later regeneration process to obtain Regenerated Fiber Bragg Gratings (RFBGs) in high-birefringence

Range-resolved signal processing for fibre segment interferometry applied to dynamic long-gauge length strain sensing [PDF]
A range-resolved interferometric signal processing technique using sinusoidal optical frequency modulation is applied to fibre segment interferometry. Here, six optical fibre segments of gauge length 12.5 cm are used as interferometric strain sensors and

Nonlinear switching in fibre Bragg gratings
We report on our recent experiments on nonlinear switching in fibre Bragg gratings. Using an all-fibre source we show an increase in transmission of a FBG from 4% to 40% at high powers. This switching is associated with the formation of gap solitons inside the grating.

Intrinsic, multiplexable sensors for electric field strength using structural slow light in phase-shifted fibre Bragg gratings [PDF]
In this paper we demonstrate through simulation the potential for phase-shifted fibre Bragg gratings incorporating structural slow light to enable intrinsic reflection-mode point sensors for electric field or voltage.

Locally Pressed Fibre Bragg Grating Pressure Sensor [PDF]
A spectral-hole created by locally pressing a fibre Bragg grating exhibited a wavelength-shift within the FBG bandwidth. A sensitivity of 74.3pm/(N/mm) was obtained for pressure applied along the slow axis of a high birefringence fibre.

Bi-Signature optical spectroscopy for online fault detection in electrical machines
A novel bi-signature optical spectroscopy for fault detection in electrical machines is presented. The combined use of long period grating (LPG) and two fibre Bragg gratings (FBG1 and FBG2) is implemented to discriminate between vibration and temperature
