A strain gauge is used to measure the strain on an object. It is a very thin, flat coil of conductive wire. (Editor's note: strain “gauge” is often spelled as “gage”; why this is so, and which is ...
Strain gages are sensing devices used in a variety of physical test and measurement applications. They change resistance at their output terminals when stretched or compressed. Because of this ...
Sensors of all types have come a long way in the last few years and tend to be more accurate and more stable than their predecessors. These sensors are not always simple to use. Designers of ...
Many conventional strain gages are similar in appearance to Figure 1. A serpentine pattern etched into a metal foil creates a relatively high resistance in a small space. The foil is bonded to a thin ...
