Monitoring of composite structures using a network of integrated PVDF film transducers

Joël Cugnoni, Thomas Gmür, Enrique René Guzman Solares

Aiming to reduce costs, polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) film patches are an emerging alternative to more classic piezoelectric technologies, like ceramic patches, as transducers to measure local deformation in many structural applications. This choice is ...

A Novel Structural Health Monitoring Method for Full-Scale CFRP Structures

Enrique René Guzman Solares

Polymer-based composite materials are used to manufacture ultra-light panels, massively introduced in the last decades in the aeronautical industry, as a potential solution to reduce the energy consumption and combustion emissions. Safety being the main co ...

Multi-factorial models of a carbon fibre/epoxy composite subjected to accelerated environmental ageing

Joël Cugnoni, Thomas Gmür, Enrique René Guzman Solares

Among materials being introduced in the aerospace industry, the carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP) have a place of privilege because of their exceptional stiffness-to-mass ratio. However, the polymer-based matrix is vulnerable to damages by environmen ...

Survivability of integrated PVDF film sensors to accelerated ageing conditions in aeronautical/aerospace structures

Joël Cugnoni, Alain Schorderet, Enrique René Guzman Solares

This work validates the use of integrated polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film sensors for dynamic testing, even after being subjected to UV-thermo-hygro-mechanical accelerated ageing conditions. The verification of PVDF sensors' survivability in these envi ...
