Polyvinyl alcohol-carbon nanotube (PVA-CNT) fibers differing on their pre-stretching condition were embedded in glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) composites and used as strain sensors for damage monitoring of the composite. Strain sensing of the composite was made by the in situ measurement of the embedded fiber's electrical resistance change during the mechanical tests. Four glass fiber composite plates were manufactured; each one had embedded a different type of produced PVA-CNT fibers. The multi-functional materials were tested in monotonic tensile tests as well as in progressive damage accumulation tests. The electrical resistance readings of the PVA-CNT fibers were correlated with axial strain values, taking into account the induced damage of the composite. It has been demonstrated that increasing the fiber's pre-stretching ratio, its electrical resistance response increases due to higher degree of the CNTs alignment in the PVA matrix. Higher fiber pre-stretching degree enables the better strain monitoring of the composite due to higher measured electrical resistance change values noticed for the same applied axial strain values. To this end, it enables for the better monitoring of the progressive damage accumulation inside the composite. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
