| Resumo: | The present paper examines the use of optic fiber as a distributed temperature sensor to leakage detection on earth dams. This technique allows complement the current auscultation systems improving the way of monitoring of this kind of critical infrastructures. This type of real time monitoring system has been implemented on two real cases (Soto-Terroba and Yesa earth dams). The aim of this work is to provide a practical vision about this novel and promising technique, and particularly on the criteria to select the adequate materials and the precautions to be taken into account in order to deploy correctly the sensor element. |
