Official abstract text for this publication.
A method, apparatus and computer-readable medium for determining deformation of a plurality of coupled members. A distributed strain sensor string on a first member is coupled to a distributed strain sensor string on a second member. Signals are obtained from the sensor strings. A subset of strain data relating to sensor strain on the first member and the second member is created. A virtual sensor string is created having a plurality of virtual sensors placed on the first and second members including a joint therebetween. Strain data of sensors in the distributed stain sensor strings is mapped to sensors in the virtual sensor string. The deformation of the plurality of coupled members is determined using the strain data of the virtual sensors.
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of determining a deformation mode of coupled first member and second member, comprising: coupling a first distributed strain sensor string on the first member to a second distributed strain sensor string on the second member; propagating light through the first distributed strain sensor string and the second distributed strain sensor string to obtain strain data from sensors in the first distributed strain sensor string and sensors in the second d…
