Impact Location Detection Demonstration System for a Rectangular Plate Using Piezoelectric Paint Sensor

초록

In this paper, we propose a simple technique to detect impact location for a rectangular plate having anisotropic material properties. The piezoelectric paint sensor composed of piezoelectric particles and epoxy resin has been used for impact location detection. This paint is very promising piezoelectric composite material: it can be flexibly deposited onto the most structures surface in a thin form of the paint
