Abstract |
A theoretical analysis is presented to predict crack sensing capabilities of smart sensors on cantilever type beam structures under static loading conditions. Smart sensors are made of piezoelectric materials and their composites. A single sensor is bonded on the top surface of a cantilever beam structure. The sensor output is modeled with respect to strain developed in the structure due to mechanical point loading. The effect of crack location, crack size, sensor location, sensor size and sensor properties are studied on the sensor output.
