  2. Strain gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_gauge

    A strain gauge (also spelled strain gage) is a device used to measure strain on an object. Invented by Edward E. Simmons and Arthur C. Ruge in 1938, ...

  3. Gauge factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_factor

    Gauge factor (GF) or strain factor of a strain gauge is the ratio of relative change in electrical resistance R, to the mechanical strain ε. The gauge factor is defined as: [1] = / / = / = + + / where ε = strain = / = absolute change in length

  4. Tensile testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensile_testing

    where ΔL is the change in gauge length, L 0 is the initial gauge length, and L is the final length. The force measurement is used to calculate the engineering stress, σ, using the following equation: [5] = where F is the tensile force and A is the nominal cross-section of the specimen.

  5. Distributed acoustic sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_acoustic_sensing

    In Rayleigh scatter-based distributed fiber optic sensing, a coherent laser pulse is sent along an optic fiber, and scattering sites within the fiber cause the fiber to act as a distributed interferometer with a gauge length approximately equal to the pulse length. The intensity of the reflected light is measured as a function of time after ...

  6. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_curve

    Beyond the Lüders strain, the stress increases due to strain hardening until it reaches the ultimate tensile stress. During this stage, the cross-sectional area decreases uniformly along the gauge length, due to the incompressibility of plastic flow (not because of the Poisson effect, which is an elastic phenomenon

  7. Extensometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensometer

    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". It was invented by Charles Huston who described it in an article in the Journal of the Franklin Institute in 1879. Huston later gave the rights to ...

  8. Strainmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strainmeter

    Distortion seismometer. A strainmeter is an instrument used by geophysicists to measure the deformation of the Earth. Linear strainmeters measure the changes in the distance between two points, using either a solid piece of material (over a short distance) or a laser interferometer (over a long distance, up to several hundred meters).

  9. Compact tension specimen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_tension_specimen

    The length of the crack is typically monitored by measuring the compliance of the coupon which changes as the crack grows, or direct measurement using an optical microscope to measure the position of the crack tip or indirectly from either extensometer readings of the crack mouth opening or attaching strain gauges to the backface of the coupon.
