Zusammenfassung: | This paper shows the use of an available ‘fibre in matrix’ model to represent optical fibre embedded in a composite three-point bend specimen. The model was used to predict the optical fibre stress level whilst embedded in the loaded structure, and experimental failure of such embedded fibre was compared with the failure stress of similarly treated non-embedded fibre. Indications are that knowledge of optical fibre strength combined with use of the model will permit prediction of embedded optical fibre failure. |
