The purpose of this study is to measure the lathe tool vibration and verify its usefulness using the fiber optic interferometeric sensor instead of using common accelerometer. To compare two vibration signals a Fabry-Perot fiber optic sensor(FOS) is directly attached to the left-side surface of the lathe tool and an accelerometer is attached near to the fiber optic sensor. Measurement signals from the FOS and theoretical results of receptance simulation are compared. When the amplitude of tool vibration increased the frequency shift phenomena was occurred. This means that mass effect occurred and vibration spectrum moved to the low frequency region. Generally this results is agreement to the regenerative chatter. The chatter frequency is not same as the natural frequency of the tool itself. The FOS can also applied to laboratory experiments for students. This experimental technique is perhaps the first attempts because of directly attachment technique. Therefore, suggested Fabry-Perot fiber optic sensor can be used to monitoring the tool wear and vibration.

Single mode fiber optic interferometers using the Fabry-Perot configuration were embedded in a reinforced concrete structure. These interferometers investigated the character of phase shift and strain for internal loads. The 10 mm length of FFPI in the continuous length of single mode fiber (SMF) were produced with two pieces of SMF coated were $TiO_2$ dielectric film utilizing the fusion splicing technique. The fabricated fiber optic Fabry-Perot interferometer(FFPI) and the 6 mm length of steel bar were buried with specimen ($100{\times}100{\times}50\;mm^3$) which was made of concrete structure. The resin protects FFPI and fiber leads from squeezed concrete. Sensors at different point in the structure were multiplexed by TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) method and the deformation to the external loads at each point could be monitored simultaneously. The output signals were proportional to the external loads applied to the structure and the sensitivity of the sensors were $1.03^{\circ}/kg$ and $0.76^{\circ}/kg$ respectively.

Fiber optic sensor is widely used in measuring acoustic and vibration. Especially interferometric sensors are more suitable to measure the acoustic signal. In this paper, a Fabry-Perot interferometric fiber optic sensor was used to measure flow induced vibration. This vibration also measured using an accelerometer, and the data was compared to one other. The venture, nozzle, drop barrel, and rapid expansion in the pipeline are the measuring objects. The flow rate is changed from 50 L/min to 150 L/min and the average flow velocity was about 7 m/s. Based on the experimental results the suggested fiber optic sensor detects flow induced vibration effectively. Therefore, this kind of fiber optic sensor can be applied to the monitoring the flow induced noise and vibration such as pipelines, cables, buildings.

In this paper, fiber optic sensor using Fabry-Perot interferometer which had benefit of minimize and light-weight was used. The sensor head has 1cm in length, total length of fiber is 9.5 chi and the sensor supported at both ends, simply. To analyze the acoustic characteristic non-directional speaker is used as a sound source. Acoustic applied in lateral direction and detected two signals were compared each other. Below 1㎑ fiber optic sensor has more sensitive than microphone, but in 2㎑ fiber optic sensor has less sensitive than microphone. This characteristic varies to the supporting system of fiber optic sensor. It was confirmed that the Fabry-Perot interferometric sensor detected acoustic signal, effectively. This kind of sensor can be applied to the structural health monitoring field of intellectual structure.
