Perturbed Microstrip Line Sensor For Crack Detection In Structural Health
Adithya Krishna Menon, H P, Sreedevi K. Menon · 2024
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of modern structures is challenging due to multiple factors which existing sensor technologies have been unable to resolve.In this work, a radio-frequency resonator is proposed for SHM applications [1, 2, 3].A perturbed microstrip line (PMSL) sensor is evaluated for the detection of cracks on polymer plates.The PMSL which has a perturbation in the form of a x 0.75a, where a = 𝜆𝑔 10
