Standard Finite Element (FE) models, especially those that incorporate multiple physical domains, consist of detailed representations of a device that include a large number of Degrees of Freedom (DoF ...

Researchers at the National Institute of Technology (NIST) have developed a new type of accelerometer based on lasers and optomechanical principles rather than the traditional mechanical strain gauges ...

Awide variety of accelerometers has been developed for measuring vibration, shock, and inertial motion. To reduce risk and ensure that meaningful and accurate data is collected, you must understand ...

A new capacitive K-BEAM accelerometer series features a three-layer silicon micro-machined sensing element for steady-state and dynamic measurements. The 8305A extends the company's capacitive ...

“BUILD A BETTER accelerometer and the world will make a beaten path to your door.” Not, perhaps, as snappy as Ralph Waldo Emerson’s original aphorism about a mousetrap. But it is the hope of Graeme ...

Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) accelerometers and vibration sensors represent a rapidly evolving field with significant implications for structural health monitoring, seismic detection, and industrial ...
