Abstract
Testing internal stress/strain condition of polymer composite materials is of high importance in structural health monitoring. We are presenting here a new method of monitoring internal stresses. The method can be referred to as embedded sensing technique, where the sensing element is a glass-coated ferromagnetic microwire with a specific magnetic anisotropy and stress-dependent magnetostriction. When the microwire is remagnetized the sharp voltage is induced which is characterized by high frequency harmonics. The amplitude of these harmonics sensitively depends on various stresses. The microwire of composition Co71Fe5B11Si10Cr3 with the metallic core diameter of 22.8 μm show abrupt transformation of the magnetization process under applied tensile stress owing to the stress-dependent magnetostriction.
