| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Heat-resistant composites are expected to be used for aircraft engines. For their practical application, it is necessary to understand the damage progress in those materials at elevated temperatures. To clarify the damage progress at high temperatures, we proposed a novel remote AE measurement method with a fiber-optic Bragg grating sensor. This method enables the successful real-time response to actual damage-induced AE signals during material tests at temperatures of up to 1000 ℃. We verified that the testing results are useful to elucidate the relation between the damage progress and the fracture strength at different temperatures.
Furthermore, the AE measurement is also expected to be used as a structural health monitoring technique to monitor damage progress while the composite-made structure is in operation. For this purpose, we have also developed a regenerated FBG sensor that can be directly installed in high-temperature environment and succeeded to receive ultrasonic waves.
