Welcome to the Advanced Sensor Technology Laboratory (ASTL)
The missions of the Advanced Sensor Technology Laboratory (ASTL) are
focused on developing state-of-the-art sensor technologies for real-time
diagnosis and prognosis of structural health conditions and providing a multi-disciplinary learning environment for students to
participate in world class research activities.
Current
research projects at ASTL cover a broad range of topics, including:
-
Passive wireless sensors for strain
and high temperature measurement
-
LPFG-based optical fiber
distance sensor development
-
Laser reflectance sensors for
material damage detection
-
Hybrid silica/polymer optical fiber
sensor for large strain measurement
-
Tapered optical fiber sensor for
bio/chemical sensing
-
Study of elastic wave generation
using piezoelectric patches
