9511540 Fuhr This two-year award will support U.S.-Ireland cooperative research between Peter L. Fuhr and Brian MacCraith of Dublin City University, Dublin, Ireland. The objective is to investigate the use of spectroscopic and evanescent wave sensors to detect the presence and concentration amounts of hazardous contaminant and corrosive materials in the environment. The investigator has been involved in the development of fiber optic sensors capable of operating when embedded inside civil structures. He proposes to use similar techniques to test a fiber optic evanescent wave sensor for contaminant (or corrosion) monitoring in civil structures and at construction sites. The project takes advantage of Irish expertise in the field of evanescent wave sensing. This is complemented by the principal investigator's experience in fiber optics sensors incorporating spectroscopic techniques. The project will advance understanding of the application of fiber optic sensors for monitoring environmental activities.

这个为期两年的奖项将支持爱尔兰都柏林城市大学的Peter L. Fuhr和Brian MacCraith之间的美国-爱尔兰合作研究。目的是研究使用光谱和倏逝波传感器来检测环境中有害污染物和腐蚀性物质的存在和浓度。该研究人员参与了光纤传感器的开发，该传感器能够在嵌入土木结构中时运行。他建议使用类似的技术来测试一种光纤倏逝波传感器，用于监测土木结构和建筑工地的污染物（或腐蚀）。该项目利用了爱尔兰在瞬变波传感领域的专业知识。这是由首席研究员在光纤传感器结合光谱技术的经验补充。该项目将促进对光纤传感器用于监测环境活动的应用的了解。
