Assessment of biomechanical behavior of human musculoskeletal structure is essential to recognize bone diseases and to design proper medical devices.  The skeleton system basically adapts to mechanical loadings. Thus, monitoring the bone deformation under load is of great importance to attain better analysis and interpretation.  In recent years, Fiber Bragg Grating sensing devices have been developed and used to monitor strain and temperature of skeleton system.  In this work a Fiber Bragg Grating sensor is designed holding a 1.54 pmµε-1 axial strain sensitivity which is almost 30% higher than the one achieved so far.  The improvement in sensitivity is achieved by adjusting single-mode optical fiber parameters of the structure.

Structure’s strain reflects the stability of the project, the excessive structural strain will destroy the stability of the structure. Fiber Bragg Grating has many features, such as, strong anti-interference ability, low optical loss, and it can be used for a long time in the project, etc. Base on the features, the Fiber Bragg Grating Strain Sensor can be used in slope and other projects for the long-term monitoring. In this paper, we develop a Fiber Bragg Grating Strain Sensor based on the spring-steel pipe, FBG be fixed to the inner of the steel pipe by epoxy glue, it is protected by a stainless steel pipe outside, the Flange be fixed to the both side of the spring-steel pipe. When the tension acting one the flanges, the spring-steel pipe occurs an axial strain, this axial strain makes the center wavelength of the Fiber Bragg Grating change, measuring the wavelength shift amount of the Fiber Bragg Grating can calculate the strain. The loading experiment indicates that the sensitivity of the Spring-steel pipe Fiber Bragg Grating Strain Sensor is 0.81pm/με, the linearity of the sensor is 2.1%FS, and the repeatability error of the sensor is 2.29%FS.

In this paper, to enhance practicality, a novel tapered thin-core fiber (t-TCF) based modal interferometer is proposed and demonstrated experimentally. The light field distribution of t-TCF structure is investigated by a beam propagation method, and the quantitative relationship is gained between light intensity loss and waist diameter. Under ~30 μm waist diameter, multiple t-TCF based sensor heads are fabricated by arc-discharged splicing and taper techniques, and comprehensive tests are performed with respects to axial strain and temperature. The experimental results show that, with near-zero wavelength shift, obvious intensity strain response is exhibited and negative-proportional to the reduced length of TCF. Thus, the maximum sensitivity reaches 0.119 dB/με when the TCF length is equal to 15 mm, and a sub-micro-strain detection resolution (about 0.084 με) is obtained. Besides, owing to the flat red-shifted temperature response, the calculated cross-sensitivity of our sensor is compressed within 0.32 με/°C, which is promising for high precision strain related engineering applications.
