  2. Strain gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_gauge

    An unmounted resistive foil strain gauge. A strain gauge takes advantage of the physical property of electrical conductance and its dependence on the conductor's geometry. . When an electrical conductor is stretched within the limits of its elasticity such that it does not break or permanently deform, it will become narrower and longer, which increases its electrical resistance end-to-

  3. General Motors B platform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_B_platform

    The B platform (also known as the B body) is a full-size, rear-wheel drive, body-on-frame car platform, that was produced by General Motors (GM) from 1926 to 1996. Originally made for Oldsmobile and Buick , all of General Motors's five main passenger car makes would use it at some point.

  4. Load cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_cell

    The wire or foil in the strain gauge is arranged in a way that, when force is applied in one direction, a linear change in resistance results. Tension force stretches a strain gauge, causing it to get thinner and longer, resulting in an increase in resistance. Compression force does the opposite.

  5. Four-terminal sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-terminal_sensing

    Four-point measurement of resistance between voltage sense connections 2 and 3. Current is supplied via force connections 1 and 4. In electrical engineering, four-terminal sensing (4T sensing), 4-wire sensing, or 4-point probes method is an electrical impedance measuring technique that uses separate pairs of current-carrying and voltage-sensing electrodes to make more accurate measurements ...

  6. Chrysler B platform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_B_platform

    There was more diversity in the outward appearance of the Dodge B-body series. The Dodge models based on the B-body were the Coronet, Super Bee and the Charger. The 1969 Charger Daytona was a Charger with an extended nose and high-mounted rear wing, offered for the same reasons as the Superbird. The Charger Daytona was produced only during the ...

  7. Wheatstone bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheatstone_bridge

    A Wheatstone bridge is an electrical circuit used to measure an unknown electrical resistance by balancing two legs of a bridge circuit, one leg of which includes the unknown component. The primary benefit of the circuit is its ability to provide extremely accurate measurements (in contrast with something like a simple voltage divider ). [ 1 ]

  8. Talk:Strain gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Strain_gauge

    A typical strain gauge arranges a long, thin conductive strip in a zig-zag pattern of parallel lines such that a small amount of stress in the direction of the orientation of the parallel lines results in a multiplicatively larger strain over the effective length of the conductor—and hence a multiplicatively larger change in resistance—than ...

  9. Cable harness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_harness

    A cable laced wiring harness installed in a component of a Tesla coil Harness of car audio cables.. A cable harness, also known as a wire harness, wiring harness, cable assembly, wiring assembly or wiring loom, is an assembly of electrical cables or wires which transmit signals or electrical power.
