Distributed Optical Fiber Sensor Applications in Geotechnical Monitoring

Abstract: We report the experimental application of distributed optical fiber sensors, based on stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS), to the monitoring of a small-scale granular slope reconstituted in an instrumented flume and subjected to artificial rainfall until failure, and to the monitoring of a volcanic rock slope. The experiments demonstrate the sensors’ ability to reveal the sudden increase in soil strain that foreruns the failure in a debris flow phenomenon, as well as to monitor the fractures in the tuff rock… Show more

“…For the flume experiment, a high spatial resolution (5 cm) distributed optical fiber sensor based on the Brillouin Optical Frequency-Domain Analysis (BOFDA) was chosen. The purpose of this experiment was investigating the failure of a small-scale volcanic slope subjected to artificial rainfall [ 65 ]. For our experiments, soil from the Cervinara site was employed (northeast of Naples, Italy), an area affected by a devastating debris avalanche in 1999.…”

“…Through the flexible deployment of wireless monitoring sensor equipment, it is possible to monitor challenging environments such as high-tree crowns and high slopes for better data monitoring. Therefore, the wireless sensor is considered to be one of the most effective instruments for slope micrometeorological monitoring [ 25 , 26 , 27 ].…”

“…Along with the development of technology, measuring devices for physical modeling experiments in the geotechnical field are constantly being researched and improved. Minardo et al, (2021) [13] used the distributed optical fiber sensors in flume tests with volcanic sand subjected to rainfall as well as in the monitoring of a coastal cliff to propose its application in the early warning system. Zhang et al, (2018) [14] presented the potential for measurement of deep deformation in landslide model tests of a flexible inclinometer probe, a design that includes gravity acceleration sensors.…”
