Monitoring of the concrete curing process using plastic optical fibers

In this paper we propose the application of plastic optical fiber to monitor the concrete curing process. The proposed method is based in the scattering of the propagated optical signal in grooves imposed to the fiber. By monitoring the intensity of the transmitted light signal, along time, we can d...
