Hi all, I need some help from the forum.
My lecturer ask me to measure strain of a pulling rod using strain gauge? I have no clue what he mean. The rod was connected to a plate and was used to drive the plate forward and backward. the rod was fixed and design only for one direction movement. If I need to measure the difference when a few object with a different in weight putting on the plate. and i have only strain gauge to use. how and where can i attacth the strain gauge to? the best position to achieve a maximum accuracy? Urgently need help.
Thanks in advance.
