Abstract

Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor is a preferred carrier for information transmission and sensing of smart metal structures. The electroplated nickel FBG is embedded in a direct or indirect way and welded by ultrasonic welding to research the rapid prototyping and sensing properties of the titanium alloy intelligent structural parts. The experiment of embedding electroplated nickel FBG into titanium alloy in the direct way shows that titanium alloy is not suitable for embedding matrix. The experiment of embedding electroplated nickel FBG in the indirect way shows that the figure of FBG temperature sensitivity is 2.13 times larger than that of original bare fiber grating, and is 1.11 times larger than that of direct way. This fact means that embedding metallized FBG into the titanium alloy structure in the indirect way is an effective way.
