SHM of civil engineering structures and geo-application base on FBG

Monitoring of structures such as bridges, tunnels, and other large civil engineering projects and also geotechnical applications such embankments movements, slopes instability etc. is becoming a daily reality. Technology based on FBG fiber-optic sensors has general advantages already mentioned in part Civil engineering and geotechnical application. However, FBG technology will allow much more, for example monitoring of extremely large projects, where the distance between the individual sensors may be up to tens of kilometers. And what more they may be sensors monitoring different parameters, such as the deformation, displacement, pressure, temperature, inclination, vibration, etc.
