Integrated Embedded Frequency Selective Surface Sensors for Structural Health Monitoring

The objective of this project is to design an embedded sensor element capable of characterizing mechanical properties including shear strain. This element will be designed using a Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) approach, and will be intended for integration into composite materials. The successful outcome of this project will result in a new embedded integrated sensing method with the potential to significantly impact the method by which composite structures are inspected. Further, the outcomes of this project may directly impact the potential for remote (standoff) inspection of such structures.
