Abstract The electrical resistance Cu film on flexible substrate was investigated in cyclic bending deformation. The electrical resistance of 1 µm thick Cu film on flexible substrate increased up to 120 % after 500,000 cycles in 1.1 % tensile bending strain. Crack and extrusion were observed due to the fatigue damage of metal film. Low bending strain did not cause any damage on metal film but higher bending strain resulted in severe electrical and mechanical damage. Thinner film showed higher fatigue resistance because of the better mechanical property of thin film. Cu film with NiCr under-layer showed poorer fatigue resistance in tensile bending mode. Ni capping layer did not improve the fatigue resistance of Cu film, but Al capping layer suppressed crack formation and lowered electrical resistance change. The NiCr under layer, Ni capping layer, and Al capping layer effect on electrical resistance change of Cu film was compared with Cu only sample.

Abstract Conductive Hydrogels are soft materials which have been used by some researchers as resistive strain sensors in the last years. The electrical resistance change, when the sensor is stretched or compressed, is usually measured by the two-electrode method. This method is not always suitable to measure the electrical resistance of polymers-based materials, like hydrogels, because it could be highly influenced by the electrode/sample interface, as explained in this study. For this reason, a signal conditioning circuit, based on four-electrode impedance measurements, is proposed to measure the electrical resistance change when the gel is stretched or compressed. Experimental results show that the tested gels can be used as resistance force/pressure sensors with a quite linear behaviour.

The goal of this study is to develop a structural health monitoring methodology for smart self-sensory carbon-based textile reinforced concrete elements. The self-sensory concept is based on measuring the electrical resistance change in the carbon roving reinforcement and by means of an engineering gage factor, correlating the relative electrical resistance change to an integral value of strain along the location of the roving. The concept of the nonlinear engineering gage factor that captures the unique micro-structural mechanism of the roving within the concrete matrix is demonstrated and validated. The estimated value of strain is compared to a theoretical value calculated by assuming a healthy state. The amount of discrepancy between the two strain values makes it possible to indicate and distinguish between the structural states. The study experimentally demonstrates the engineering gage factor concept and the structural health monitoring procedure by mechanically loading two textile reinforced concrete beams, one by a monotonic loading procedure and the other by a cyclic loading procedure. It is presented that the proposed structural health monitoring procedure succeeded in estimating the strain and in clearly distinguishing between the structural states.
