Without the appropriate relationships, fiber optic sensors do not provide meaningful information. The relationship providing the bridge between the sensor output and the engineering values of strain and temperature must be established via analytical models. This book presents such models for extrinsic and intrinsic Fabry-Perot sensors and for Bragg grating sensors embedded in or mounted on the surface of isotropic or anisotropic solids or immersed in fluids.

Without the appropriate relationships, fiber optic sensors do not provide meaningful information. The relationship providing the bridge between the sensor output and the engineering values of strain and temperature must be established via analytical models. This book presents such models for extrinsic and intrinsic Fabry-Perot sensors and for Bragg grating sensors embedded in or mounted on the surface of isotropic or anisotropic solids or immersed in fluids. The scope of the book is limited to the theory of fiber optic strain and temperature sensors. The problem necessitates complex analytical developments. To assist the reader, the significant results are summarized in tables, and numerical examples are given illustrating the calculation procedures.
