• Abstract:
  The objective of this project is to design an embedded sensor element capable of characterizing mechanical properties including shear strain. This element will be designed using a Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) approach, and will be intended for integration into composite materials. The sensitivity of such FSS-based sensors to mechanical properties such as strain has been demonstrated by others [1-8]. As such, this work primarily focused on the development of FSS sensors that are specifically designed to be sensitive to shear strain.
