NEUP CINR-24-31840: MONITORING CERAMIC FUEL FRACTURE VIA FIBER OPTIC ACOUSTIC EMISSION SENSORS

In the proposed three-year program, the Center for Photonics Technology (CPT) at Virginia Tech will collaborate with Sentek Instrument (Sentek), Prysmian, and Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to develop and demonstrate a distributed acoustic emission (AE) sensing system for in-situ monitoring of ceramic fuel fracture.
