A
calculator for
Half-Bridge Shear Patterns
With the same transverse sensitivity for each grid in the rosette.
Independent Variables
Indicated Shear Strain (microstrain),
Transverse Sensitivity (%),
Poisson's Ratio* (nondimensional),
Dependent Variable
Actual Shear Strain (microstrain),
Note
*
The Poisson's ratio of the material on which the manufacturer's gage factor was measured (usually 0.285).
