Compared to traditional structural materials, polymer matrix composites (PMC) offer greatly enhanced performance and flexibility. However, these benefits come at the cost of increased material ...

Dr. Wes Womack, Director of Engineering from Epsilon Technology talks to AZoM about non-contact strain measurements for materials testing and how to make measurements accurate and consistent to avoid ...

Strain can be defined as the deformation of a material resulting from applied force, and it is measured by change in length. It can be either compressive or tensile. A strain gauge is a device that ...

Strain measurement is imperative during prototype design and testing. Measuring strain ensures that materials perform as they should and that equipment is safe, functional, and durable. The resistive ...

Strain gauges are the fundamental sensing elements for many types of sensors, including pressure sensors, load cells, torque sensors, and position sensors. Most strain gauges are foil types, available ...

High-temperature thin film strain gauges have emerged as indispensable tools in monitoring the mechanical integrity of critical components operating under extreme thermal conditions. Through the ...

The strain gage is one of the most common sensors used in automotive tests. Automotive test engineers use strain gages in materials test, durability tests, aerodynamics tests, and powertrain tests to ...

When designing an experiment or test, simplicity is important. Each process added to a test or experiment to obtain data increases the potential for error. For ...

“Gauging the strain,” February’s Special Report on Data Acquisition, presented traditional strain gage theory and highlighted several instruments and bridge amplifiers suitable for use with strain ...
