Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) based sensors offer important advantages over traditional instrumentation
with regards to real-time structural health monitoring (SHM) of composite materials and structures in recent
years. FBG sensors, integrated into existing structures or embedded into new ones, have played a major role
in assessing the safety and integrity of engineering structures. In this paper, a review on the latest research
of the FBG-based SHM technique for composite field is presented. Firstly, the FBG sensing principle is briefly
discussed and FBG and several other optical fiber sensors (OFSs) for SHM are performance-compared. Then,
several examples of the use of FBG sensors in composite SHM are illustrated, including those from the field of cure
monitoring, civil engineering, aviation, aerospace, marine and offshore platform. Finally, some existing problems
are pointed out and some proposals for further researches are provided.
