Real-Time Structural Health Monitoring Using a Novel Fiber-Optic Accelerometer System 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Dae-Hyun Kim Maria Q. Feng 《IEEE sensors journal》2007,7(4):536-543
This paper presents a novel fiber-optic accelerometer system to monitor civil engineering structures in real time and a successful application of the novel sensor system for damage detection of the concrete slab structure. This sensor system integrates the Moireacute fringe phenomenon with fiber optics to achieve accurate and reliable measurements. A signal processing unit implements unique algorithms to further enhance the resolution and increase the dynamic bandwidth of the sensors. The sensor system is immune to electromagnetic (EM) interference, making it suitable for difficult applications in such environments involving strong EM fields, electrical spark-induced explosion risks, and cabling problems, prohibiting the use of conventional electromagnetic accelerometers. Especially, this paper presents a unique real-time signal processing algorithm and applications to real-time damage assessment, demonstrating the uniquely high performance of the Moireacute fringe fiber-optic sensor system 相似文献

Fundamental noise limit of piezoelectric accelerometer 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Since significant progress is achieved in the development of piezoelectric (PE) accelerometers for small signal applications nowadays (for example, piezoelectric seismic vibration sensors), the question about the fundamental noise limit of these sensors becomes vital. The noise of the PE transducer is the fundamental noise limit of the PE accelerometer and should be taken into account if the noise of the electronics is small enough. The two noise sources of PE transducer, the mechanical-thermal noise of the damped mechanical harmonic oscillator and the electrical-thermal noise of the PE element's material, are analyzed in this paper. The equation of the total fundamental noise limit of the PE accelerometer is presented. This equation can be used for the calculation of the fundamental noise limit of PE accelerometers if their parameters are known or can be obtained by measurement. 相似文献

Based on the postbuckling theory of large deflection beams, the nonlinear stiffness of a postbuckling beam is deduced and in agreement with the results of buckling experiments. Then, a novel post machined threshold accelerometer is designed, which consists of eight oblique post beams with an inertial mass in the middle to ensure its single moving direction and an electrical contact part fabricated on the bottom of the inertial mass. The threshold accelerometer is an integration of a threshold sensor and an inertial driven actuator used in airbag restraint systems. When the acceleration reaches the threshold, the beams buckle and close the threshold accelerometer, and when it gets down to be a certain value, the accelerometer opens quickly under the effect of the elastic force developed by the postbuckling beams. Compared with the design models of other threshold accelerometers with linear beam structures, the nonlinear postbuckling beams are introduced as threshold sensing elements. A number of design factors such as the air film damping and the contact force are taken into full consideration, thus establishing the dynamic equation of the accelerometer under coupled forces. The dynamical simulation for the strong nonlinear system with elliptic integrals indicates its good threshold characteristic and high contact reliability. The threshold accelerometer responds within 4 ms when it is triggered by a threshold acceleration ac = 20 g, and cuts off quickly when the cutoff acceleration is under ad = 5 g. Meanwhile, the unstable contact time is only 0.02 ms for the contact force to reach 50 mN, which guarantees the contact resistance to be less than 20 mOmega. With the results of the dynamic simulation, supported by previous buckling experiments, the accelerometer can provide accurate threshold sensing without false actuations under interferences outside, especially electromagnetic and vibration interferences, and hence their wide applications in safe-arming systems. 相似文献

A combination of two 2-D sensor networks is proposed as a dynamic surface profile sensor network for biomimicing applications. A surface acoustic wave device fabricated on a polyvinylidine difluoride substrate has been investigated as the elementary 1-D bending curvature sensor used in the network. The device was tested under an injected signal and it shows the variation in amplitude and phase angle of output signal with respect to the injected signal in response to the bending curvature. These dual outputs provide opportunity to make an intelligent sensor with self error limit determination capability. Finally, a network of such sensors is proposed as a dynamic surface profile sensor 相似文献

针对现有航姿测量系统三轴加速度计校准方法成本高、精度低以及现场校准能力不足的问题,本文提出了一种基于椭球假设的无依托现场校准方法.首先,根据传感器的灵敏度、偏置以及非正交耦合因素对加速度计的影响,建立了误差椭球校准模型.该模型将三轴加速度计的校准过程转化为将椭球面还原成圆球面的几何变换过程,使得校准参数由15个减少到9个,同时克服了部分非正交耦合参数难以辨识的问题.其次,构造了变权值似然目标函数,根据加速度计测量值的方差调整权值大小,从而降低了测量噪声对校准结果的影响.最后,运用粒子群优化(PSO)算法求解几何变换参数的最大似然估计值,并利用椭球校准模型对三轴加速度计进行校准.实验结果表明,采用椭球假设无依托现场校准方法不依赖外部辅助姿态信息,可在现场将航姿测量系统的倾角误差降低为校准前的1/5,满足了航姿系统的使用需求. 相似文献

It is shown that the very pronounced resonance peak in the frequency entirely by a simple modification of existing accelerometers, providing them with an electrical sensor output as well as an electrical actuator input, and using a charge amplifier in a feedback path between the sensor output and the actuator input. Because a piezoelectric accelerometer is normally read out by a charge amplifier, no extra circuitry (expense) is necessary to provide this electromechanical feedback. It is shown that a maximally flat response (Butterworth) can be obtained with little peaking (approximately 2 dB) and excellent dynamic stability, which makes the acceleration usable up to its resonance frequency 相似文献

The noise in the FM telemetry channel may decrease significantly the accuracy of accelerometer readings. The noise effects in both digital and analog accelerometers are examined in this paper. A maximum-likelihood estimate of the accelerometer output is made and the mean-square error of the estimate is evaluated. It is shown that the digital accelerometer is superior to the analog accelerometer in the presence of noise. Two methods of reducing the mean-square error are suggested. 相似文献

Estimation of Attitude and External Acceleration Using Inertial Sensor Measurement During Various Dynamic Conditions 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

This paper proposes a Kalman filter-based attitude (i.e., roll and pitch) estimation algorithm using an inertial sensor composed of a triaxial accelerometer and a triaxial gyroscope. In particular, the proposed algorithm has been developed for accurate attitude estimation during dynamic conditions, in which external acceleration is present. Although external acceleration is the main source of the attitude estimation error and despite the need for its accurate estimation in many applications, this problem that can be critical for the attitude estimation has not been addressed explicitly in the literature. Accordingly, this paper addresses the combined estimation problem of the attitude and external acceleration. Experimental tests were conducted to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm in various dynamic condition settings and to provide further insight into the variations in the estimation accuracy. Furthermore, two different approaches for dealing with the estimation problem during dynamic conditions were compared, i.e., threshold-based switching approach versus acceleration model-based approach. Based on an external acceleration model, the proposed algorithm was capable of estimating accurate attitudes and external accelerations for short accelerated periods, showing its high effectiveness during short-term fast dynamic conditions. Contrariwise, when the testing condition involved prolonged high external accelerations, the proposed algorithm exhibited gradually increasing errors. However, as soon as the condition returned to static or quasi-static conditions, the algorithm was able to stabilize the estimation error, regaining its high estimation accuracy. 相似文献

Inertial sensor technology trends 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
This paper presents an overview of how inertial sensor technology is applied in current applications and how it is expected to be applied in nearand far-term applications. The ongoing trends in inertial sensor technology development are discussed, namely interferometric fiber-optic gyros, micro-mechanical gyros and accelerometers, and micro-optical sensors. Micromechanical sensors and improved fiber-optic gyros are expected to replace many of the current systems using ring laser gyroscopes or mechanical sensors. The successful introduction of the new technologies is primarily driven by cost and cost projections for systems using these new technologies are presented. Externally aiding the inertial navigation system (INS) with the global positioning system (GPS) has opened up the ability to navigate a wide variety of new large-volume applications, such as guided artillery shells. These new applications are driving the need for extremely low-cost, batch-producible sensors 相似文献

The Bremen drop tower at the Center of Applied Space Technology and Microgravity (ZARM) provides high quality micro-g condition
needed for many high precision tests. This is even more improved by the development of a free flyer technology. This new technology
is used for a free fall test of the MICROSCOPE differential accelerometers which only can work with a residual acceleration
disturbance level below 25 nano-g in the high resolution mode. The French MICROSCOPE space mission for testing the Weak Equivalence
Principle is scheduled for 2012/2013. The free fall accelerometer test campaign at ZARM is an important part of the pre-mission
test program. In this article the new free flyer technology, its performance as well as the accelerometer tests are described. 相似文献
