Three-Element Rectangular (45 deg) Rosettes

With the same transverse sensitivity for each grid.

Independent Variables
Indicated Strains (microstrain),

Transverse Sensitivity* (%),

Poisson's Ratio** (nondimensional),

Dependent Variable
Actual Strains (microstrain),

Notes
* Grids 1 and 3 of planar rosettes commonly have the same transverse sensitivity.
** The Poisson's ratio of the material on which the manufacturer's gage factor was measured (usually 0.285).
