In-situ strain sensing with fiber optic sensors embedded into stainless steel 316

Abstract: Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors are embedded into Stainless Steel (SS) 316 components using bespoke Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology. SS 316 material is added on substrates by SLM, incorporating U-shaped grooves with dimensions suitable to hold nickel coated optical fibers. Coated optical fibers containing fiber Bragg gratings for strain monitoring are placed in the groove. Melting subsequent powder layer on top of the fiber completes the embedding. Strain levels exceeding 3 mɛ are applied to specime… Show more

“…There are several applications for gas sensing, including controlling indoor and outdoor air quality, ensuring national security, and controlling chemical processes in factories [ 165 ]. A basic sensing process involves gas adsorption-induced charge transfer [ 166 ] and doping [ 77 ]. The mechanism of gas-sensing materials, such as metal oxides, has been extensively studied and well-described.…”

“…A variety of metals, such as Inconel, titanium, and stainless steel, as well as polymers, such as nylon, were typically used [76]. Standardization of LPBF embedding sensors was introduced by Binder et al [77]. In terms of embedded sensing, LPBF has a few challenges in terms of ensuring a safe environment for the sensor (such as high temperatures, high pressures, powder contamination, chamber dimensions, inert gas flows, and the powder coater).…”

“…This measurement shows that even under heavy forces with large plastic deformations, the elastic behavior of the machined part could be monitored, understood and described using an FBG. During the experiment no slip of the FBG inside the metal was present due to the large compression of the cast process, which differs from other methods such as additive manufacturing [ 48 , 66 ]. The slopes of the functions represent the strain sensitivities of the embedded strain sensors.…”

“…After pressing the sensor towards the bottom surface of the cavity, the entire cavity was filled with resin, as shown in Figures 11 and 12 Fiber optic sensors have also been embedded using SLM technology. Havermann et al manufactured SS 316 embedded sensors on a SS 316 substrate to determine strain levels, plastic deformation, and elastic deformation while using bare SS 316 samples to compare [51]. The embedding process includes a groove in the part, where the nickel coated Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors are placed.…”
