The term used to describe an electronic load cell. The strain gauge measures weight by calibrating the changes in resistance as a result of the load, either positive or negative, applied to it.
A device for detecting the strain that a certain force produces on a body. The gauge consists of one or more fine wires cemented to the surface under test. As the surface becomes strained, the wires stretch or compress, changing their resistance. Several strain gauges are used to make-up a load cell.
a device that responds to mechanical strain. Metal foil gauges are the most common type, responding to strain with a small change in resistance. Also vibrating wire types
a gauge for measuring strain in a surface
a circular device placed at the base and tip of the penis that stretches during erection
a device in which mechanical motion is converted into an electric variation that is used as a sensitive measure of strain
a device used to measure deformation ( strain ) ofan object
a device used to measure how much a component distorts under loading
a resistive elastic sensor whose resistance is a function
a small resistive device that is attached to a material whose deformation is to be measured
a thin strip of metal designed to measure mechanical load by changing resistance when stressed (stretched or compressed within its elastic limit)
a thin wire whose electrical resistance changes when the wire is stretched or compressed
An instrument or device for measuring relative motion (compression, elongation, or shear) between two points in a mechanism or in a structural member such as a drilled shaft
a device for measuring which will convert force, pressure, tension, torque into an electrical signal
A sensor with resistance that varies based on being either stretched or compressed. When attached to a solid object with known physical properties, the resultant deflection signal can be converted to units measuring force.
deformation-sensitive resistor bonded to material under test, part of a bridge circuit
A sensor that experiences a change in resistance when it is stretched or strained. It is attached to the body subjected to the strain.
These are respiration sensors that are placed around your body - generally the chest and/or the diaphragm - to measure breathing during respiration biofeedback
A device used to measure strain. Usually designed to output a voltage relative to the strain placed on it. Popular for electronic scales.
A measuring element for converting force, pressure, tension, etc., into an electrical signal.
A sensor whose resistance is a function of the applied force.
A strain gauge (alternatively: strain gage) is a device used to measure deformation (strain) of an object. Invented by Edward E. Simmons in 1938, the most common type of strain gauge consists of an insulating flexible backing which supports a metallic foil pattern.
