Principle of operation of a strain gauge:

  • Strain gauge is a device used to convert mechanical strain into electrical signals.
  • It works on the principle that the resistance of the conductor varies directly with the length, and the resistance of the conductor varies inversely with the area of cross-section of the conductor.
  • A force is applied to the gauge, which triggers the gauge to bend...
