In this paper, we implemented a polarimetric vibration sensor using a Sagnac birefringence interferometer composed of polarization-maintaining photonic crystal fiber(PM-PCF). By changing the amplitude and frequency of vibration applied to PM-PCF employed as the sensor head of the proposed sensor, sensor responses to various types of vibration were investigated. First, the vibration characteristic of the sensor was explored for a single frequency in a frequency range from 1 to 3000Hz with a cylindrical piezoelectric transducer, and then the sensor response to naturally damped vibration was examined by utilizing a metal cantilever. It was experimentally observed that the sensor output signal was deteriorated by more than 3dB at ~1900Hz in the single frequency vibration measurement with a minimum detectable strain perturbation of ${\sim}1.34n{\varepsilon}/Hz^{1/2}$ at 1500Hz and the peak value of the sensor output signal was proportional to the strength of initially applied stress in the naturally damped vibration measurement.

본 연구에서는 유한요소법(FEM)을 이용하여 압전 수중음향센서의 모델링 및 음향특성을 해석하였다. 압전 복합구조 수중음향센서의 해석에서 기본적인 압전-탄성 구조물과 유체-구조물의 연성해석을 위한 유한요소 정식화를 하였으며 무한영역의 음향유체를 처리하기 위하여 IWEE(Infinite Wave Envelop Element)를 도입하였다. Topilz형 수중음향센서를 수중 산란체로 볼 경우 입사파가 산란체의 표면을 가진할 때 산란체로부터 발생되는 산란파는 IWEE로 인하여 무한 유체영역에서의 산란파의 감소특성을 갖게되어 무한영역을 유한영역으로 나눈 인위적인 경계에서 반사가 일어나지 않게 되므로 산란파의 음압을 정확히 구할 수 있었다. 또한, 이러한 산란해석을 바탕으로 입사파에 대한 음향센서 내부의 전기적 응답특성인 RVS(Receiving Voltage Signal)를 구하였다. 이러한 일련의 연구 과정들은 소나(SONAR) 시스템을 정확히 해석하고 음향특성을 예측하는 데 큰 도움이 될 것이다.

PZT ceramics, usually used pyroelectric materials exhibited a relatively highly Curie temperture(Tc) of $250-450^{\circ}C$ and permittivity constant of 500-1600. In this paper, the pyroelectric infrared detectors are applied two different types of pyroelectric materials, that is tetragonal crystal of ferroelectric $PbTiO_3$ and rhombohedral crystal of $Pb(Zr,Ti)O_3$. PZT ceramics shows not only highly Curie temperture but also excellent pyro and piezoelectric properties at the Zr/Ti(=52/48) ratio. Therefor in this paper, the pyroelectric infrared detectors are applied PZT ceramics, and obtained sensitive sensing characteristics by expriment case studies.

This paper introduces an active sensing node using radio-frequency (RF) telemetry. This device has brought the traditional impedance-based structural health monitoring (SHM) technique to a new paradigm. The RF active sensing node consists of a miniaturized impedance measuring device (AD5933), a microcontroller (ATmega128L), and a radio frequency (RF) transmitter (XBee). A macro-fiber composite (MFC) patch interrogates a host structure by using a self-sensing technique of the miniaturized impedance measuring device. All the process including structural interrogation, data acquisition, signal processing, and damage diagnostic is being performed at the sensor location by the microcontroller. The RF transmitter is used to communicate the current status of the host structure. The feasibility of the proposed SHM strategy is verified through an experimental study inspecting loose bolts in a bolt-jointed aluminum structure.

A torsional guided wave mode in a tubular structure has many advantages in obtaining a higher sensitivity and lower attenuation for a defect, because it shows no dispersion characteristics and no radial displacement for a tubular structure. Many attempts have been made to excite and receive torsional guided waves by conventional piezoelectric transducers, but only a few examples are used during a practical field inspection. In this study, an array of electromagnetic acoustic transducers (EMATs) were for an excitation and reception of the torsional guided waves in a pipe was designed and fabricated. The signal patterns were analyzed based on various beam path length. The feasibility of detecting the defects was investigated through a series of experiments with artificial notches on a pipe.

This paper deals with the experimental assessment of the vibration suppression of the smart structures. First. we have presented a new high-speed active control system using the DSP320C6713 microprocessor. A peripheral system developed is composed of a data acquisition system, N/D and D/A converters, piezoelectric (PZT) actuator/sensors, and drivers for fast data processing. Next, we have tested the processing time of the peripheral devices, and provided the corresponding test results. Since fast data processing is very important in the active vibration control of the structures, we have focused on achieving the fast loop times of the control system. Finally, numerous experiments were carried out on the aluminum plate to validate the superior performance of the vibration control system at different control loop times.

The spatial focusing of time reversal Lamb waves on a plate has attracted considerable attention for identifying the location of an input source. This study investigates the spatial focusing performance on a plate with respect to the number of piezoelectric (PZT) sensors for varying locations of input sources. In particular, a small number of PZT sensors produce spatial focusing through the virtual sensor effect due to reflection of Lamb waves at plate edges. The spatial focusing performance with respect to the number of PZT sensors is quantified in terms of signal to noise ratio through numerical simulation and its implication is discussed.

The magnetostriction of FeCoGe/phenol composites is measured under the external magnetic field. A few Measurement are carried out by using the electrical-resistance strain gage, the Wheaton Bridge for eliminating the unnecessary voltage, the lock-in-amplifier for the signal amplification and noise filtering. When the external magnetic field is applied to the longitudinal direction against those samples which is the 10wt.% phenol in composites, the theoretical maximum strain of 120ppm is obtained. According to the larger strain than that of others solid state actuators and piezoelectric actuators. FeCoGe/phenol composites could be useful as an actuator.
