Abstract

A method of extracting the strain profile along a fiber Bragg grating from the intensity reflection spectrum is described. The procedure is based on a filter synthesis theory that relates the aperiodicity of a grating with its reflection spectrum. To illustrate the approach, we measured the strain profile near a hole in a plate and obtained a strain resolution of 80 mu epsilon. The spatial resolution depends on the strain gradient; i.e., the higher the gradient, the better the resolution. A resolution of 0.8 mm was achieved for a 5-mm grating with a gradient of 250 mu epsilon/mm. (C) 1996 Optical Society of America

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-07-26:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 21.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 21 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 3.

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
