Experiments for Translating 3-Axis Strain Data to Pressure for Model Ship Hulls Employing Distributed Fiber Sensing

Abstract

This program benefits the structural health monitoring programs by gathering data that can be analyzed and used towards eventual translation of distributed fiber optic 3-axis strain data to pressure data. The report covers development of experimental testing procedure utilizing in parallel, distributed fiber sensing and electronic sensor data, to analyze the response to incident sea waves on the hull of a USCG Sentinel-class Fast Response Cutter model. Initial estimates and results are presented.
