Abstract

Optic fiber sensing (OFS) technology has been attracted much attention from geotechnical engineers considering its advantages including small size, light weight, immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and corrosion. It has been applied to provide potential solutions to geotechnical engineering problems. This study first reviews the state-of-the-art applications of OFS in different geotechnical engineering areas, then focuses on several scientific issues in geotechnical engineering from laboratory measurement (determination of effective stress in saturated soils and measurement of surface strain for cylindrical rock sample) to geotechnical monitoring (monitoring the behavior of tree and retaining wall under extreme weathers), finally introduces the advanced methods and transducers based on the optic fiber sensing technology to make contributions to those scientific issues.
