This method is often used to measure full-field displacement and strains, and it is widely applied in many areas of science and engineering. Compared to strain gauges and extensometers, digital image correlation methods provide finer details about deformation, due to the ability to provide both local and average data.
A wireline extensometer monitoring slope displacement and transmitting data remotely via radio or Wi-Fi. An extensometer is a device that is used to measure changes in the length of an object. [1] It is useful for stress-strain measurements and tensile tests. Its name comes from "extension-meter".
Displacement measurement is the measurement of changes in directed distance (displacement). Devices measuring displacement are based on displacement sensors, which can be contacting or non-contacting. [1] Some displacement sensors are based on displacement transducers, [2] devices which convert displacement into another form of energy. [3]
Crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) or is the distance between the opposite faces of a crack tip at the 90° intercept position. The position behind the crack tip at which the distance is measured is arbitrary but commonly used is the point where two 45° lines, starting at the crack tip, intersect the crack faces. [ 1 ]
Acromioclavicular joint dislocations are graded from I to VI. Grading is based upon the degree of separation of the acromion from the clavicle with weight applied to the arm. Grade I is slight displacement of the joint, and a badly stretched or partially torn AC ligament. It has the normal separation of <4 mm.
Clavicle fractures occur at 30–64 cases per 100,000 a year and are responsible for 2.6–5.0% of all fractures. [15] This type of fracture occurs more often in males. [ 15 ] About half of all clavicle fractures occur in children under the age of seven and is the most common pediatric fracture.
For processes that produce homogeneous batches (e.g., chemical) where repeat measurements vary primarily because of measurement error; The "chart" actually consists of a pair of charts: one, the individuals chart, displays the individual measured values; the other, the moving range chart, displays the difference from one point to the next.
Shock measurement is of interest in several fields such as Propagation of heel shock through a runner's body [2] Measure the magnitude of a shock need to cause damage to an item: fragility. [3] Measure shock attenuation through athletic flooring [4] Measuring the effectiveness of a shock absorber [5]
