Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to systems and methods for monitoring the structural health of components. In an aspect is provided a system for monitoring structural health of a component that includes a mechanotropic elastomeric (ME) layer at least partially disposed on a surface of the component, the ME layer having a first portion corresponding to a first end of the component and a second portion corresponding to a second end of the component; a fiber optic light guide coupled to the first end; and a detector coupled to the second end. In another aspect is provided a method that includes pulsing an electromagnetic energy source coupled to a system comprising a ME layer; and detecting a wavelength or wavelength range by a detector, the detected wavelength or wavelength range being responsive to an amount of stimulus and being indicative of a deformation in a component.
