This dataset contains the following files:
'Force.txt' - details the force reading from the electomechanical tests conducted
'DIC data.xlsx' - data interpreted from DIC measurements
'Electrical Strain Gauge.xlsx' - provides strain information as read by the electrical strain guage
'optical spectra folder' - provides spectral scans of the Bragg gratings under load
Note, 13 data points listed in Force.txt relate to 13 data sets listed in other files listed above.
Folder 'Thermo-optc', provides the temperature versus spectral plots that enabled thermo-optic calibration.
