Geodetect: a new step for the use of fibre Bragg grating technology in soil engineering
Marc R.-H. Voet, Alain Nancey, Johan Vlekken
Short description
Geodetect is an innovative geotextile-based monitoring system, developed for the measurement of strain and deformation of earthwork structures reinforced with geosynthetics. This paper presents the background and the results of the development and the practical experience acquired in real time jobs with this new technology.
