Download or read book Identification of Magnitudes and Locations of Loads on Slender Beams Using Strain Gage Based Methods with Application to Portable Army Bridges written by Edward Theodore Bednarz and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unique strain gage based methods were developed to identify magnitudes and locations of loads on a non-continuous, non-homogenous, slender beam with variable cross sections, welded and bolted joints, and pinned, firm rest, soft rest, pinned-fixed, and fixed boundary conditions. Four uniaxial strain gages mounted to the bottom surface of the beam created a force transducer capable of identifying the magnitude and location of a load inside the weight area. By combining individually scaled strain gage outputs, the bending moment diagram was constructed. For the case of multiple loads separated by two or more strain gage locations, uniaxial strain gages forming multiple force transducers can still identify the magnitudes and locations of all the loads. A calibration method was developed to account for the discrepancies between the theoretical and actual scaling factors arising from stress concentrations and unpredictable stress patterns in the beams due to the presence of the joints. The strain gage based force transducer methodology was experimentally validated on prismatic beams with firm rest, soft rest, firm rest-fixed, and fixed boundary conditions; an aluminum beam with a bolted joint; and a half aluminum and half steel beam with two different cross sections and a bolted joint. It was also experimentally validated on a continuous aluminum beam with a linearly varying cross section and rest boundary conditions, a tapered aluminum beam with a series of welded joints, and a full scale portable army bridge at the US Army Aberdeen Test Center. The force transducer methodology is independent of the boundary conditions of the beam and the error from strain gage drift due to uniform thermal expansion on a prismatic beam can cancel out.

Download or read book Handbook of Force Transducers written by Dan Mihai Stefanescu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-16 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part I introduces the basic "Principles and Methods of Force Measurement" according to a classification into a dozen of force transducers types: resistive, inductive, capacitive, piezoelectric, electromagnetic, electrodynamic, magnetoelastic, galvanomagnetic (Hall-effect), vibrating wires, (micro)resonators, acoustic and gyroscopic. Two special chapters refer to force balance techniques and to combined methods in force measurement. Part II discusses the "(Strain Gauge) Force Transducers Components", evolving from the classical force transducer to the digital / intelligent one, with the incorporation of three subsystems (sensors, electromechanics and informatics). The elastic element (EE) is the "heart" of the force transducer and basically determines its performance. A 12-type elastic element classification is proposed (stretched / compressed column or tube, bending beam, bending and/or torsion shaft, middle bent bar with fixed ends, shear beam, bending ring, yoke or frame, diaphragm, axial-stressed torus, axisymmetrical and voluminous EE), with emphasis on the optimum location of the strain gauges. The main properties of the associated Wheatstone bridge, best suited for the parametrical transducers, are examined, together with the appropriate electronic circuits for SGFTs. The handbook fills a gap in the field of Force Measurement, both experts and newcomers, no matter of their particular interest, finding a lot of useful and valuable subjects in the area of Force Transducers; in fact, it is the first specialized monograph in this inter- and multidisciplinary field.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays electrical force transducers, in which various electrical conversion principles are applied, are widely used. Transducers for forces from 1N till 10 MN are commercially available and used for industrial as well as research purposes. They not only serve to measure forces but also for weighing purposes. Directly converting a force into an electrical signal is not possible. This must be done step by step. For instance, in a strain gauge based transducer the conversion chain is: force - stress - strain - resistance change - bridge output. At every conversion point in this chain parasatic influences can interfere with the results and may cause a loss in accuracy. To surmount the problems related to obtaining sufficient accuracy and reliability for these transducers, much research has been done allover the world in the past 35 years. As a result, new materials, new techniques, improved constructional designs and compensation circuits have been found to overcome the parasitic influences. The object of the IMEKO Conferences on behalf of the Technical Committee on Measurement of Force and Mass (TC-3) is to exchange experiences, to discuss problems and to obtain knowledge about practical applications. In this book the papers have been collected that will be discussed at the 11th International Conference on Measurement of Force and Mass. The topic of this conference is "Mechanical Problems in Measuring Force and Mass".

Download or read book Force Measurement on Rocket Sleds written by William E. Baker and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methods were developed for measurement of specific components of forces acting on rocket sleds during runs. The forces acting on the sleds for which the instrumentation was developed to measure were the thrust forces from the pusher, the braking forces, and forces acting on the slipper by the track. The methods of measuring the forces included instrumentation of the existing sled structures with strain gages and use of specially developed force transducers which were mounted on the slippers. For both force measurement methods, static calibration procedures were used. The transducer developed was a three component force transducer, measuring two orthogonal components of force and one moment component. Two of these transducers were manufactured and sent to Holloman Air Force Base for use. In addition to the development of methods of measuring forces, the contractor consulted with the Track Test Directorate on problems related to force systems acting on sleds and behavior of the sled due to the force systems. Descriptions of this work are included. (Author).

Download or read book Inspection of Metals written by F. C. Campbell and published by ASM International. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the technology of inspection of metals, the main emphasis on final part inspection at the manufacturing facility or on receipt at the user's facility. The unique feature of this book is that it provides an intermediate level introduction to the different methods used to inspect metals and finished parts and a more detailed review of the specific inspection methods for important metal product forms. The book is divided into two parts: Part I gives the basics of the most important methods used for inspection and testing, while Part II covers the types of methods used to inspect different classes of metallic parts. The advantages and limitations of each method are discussed, including when other methods may be warranted. In particular, the chapters on specific product forms (e.g., castings) compare the different inspection methods and why they are used.
