High-Elongation Strain Measurements

Instrumentation

Wheatstone bridge circuits are commonly used in strain gage measurements. These circuits are inherently nonlinear when large gage resistance changes are encountered. Consult Vishay Measurements Group Tech Note TN-507, Errors Due to Wheatstone Bridge Nonlinearity , for correction procedures.
