- Abstract
In this paper, we present a comprehensive overview of our research in the field of distributed fiber optic sensors for structural health monitoring of hydrogen composite pressure vessels. Specifically, we demonstrate how the integration of fiber optic sensors into composite pressure vessels enhances safety while simultaneously reducing maintenance costs. The small size of optical fibers enables their integration into composite structures during the manufacturing process, allowing continuous monitoring and precise detection and localization of structural damages during service life. We also discuss the potential of state-of-the-art signal processing methods and machine learning for advancing predictive maintenance. Our applications of fiber optic sensors demonstrate their potential to contribute significantly to the energy transition towards renewable sources.
