It is shown, that the singlefiber doublemode interferometer implanted into structure of a tested concrete unit allows to measure the unit structural deflection, absolute elongation and residual deformations in real time with accuracy not worse, than 0,05 im . It is also shown, that the developed interferometric method allows to indicate a point of time of unit's crack initiation and to estimate the crack opening displacement.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
