Novel Biomechanical Sensors
Original language description
Strain sensors are widely applied to measure component level strain in both laboratory and field environments, as they correspond directly to the induced localized stress fields commonly used for damage detection. Both of single and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) exhibit load-unload relationship between their mechanical deformation and electrical conductance which implies the potential use of CNTs as strain/stress sensors. The film made of CNTs, or buckypaper, is potentially useful for structuralhealth monitoring and vibration control applications. In this study the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) composite with embedded oxidized MWCNTs by KMnO4 treatment was prepared. The electromechanical properties and viability of the TPU composite as a biomechanical sensor were examined. The evaluated sensitivity of the composites in terms of the gauge factor increases with strain to nearly 175 at the strain 11%. The possible practical use of the composites was demonstrated by monitoring o
