It is a measurement device to determine if slow movement is taking place between two parts of an object. An example is two sides of a potential earthquake fault line or rocks on a cliff that may produce an avalanche.
Creep meters an be made from piezoelectric sensors that measure changes in the relative positions of material on each side of the material that may move through compression or tension. They can also measure the distances by the interference patterns of light bounced back from the moving side of the system.

Which process creates changes in the landscape more slowly creep or fall?
Creep
What is the slow downslope movement of materials?
it's a creep (not like someone who's creepy) NO JOKE THAT'S WHAT IT'S CALLED :) =}
How does the creep meter work?
A creep meter is a wire stretched across a fault to measure the horizontal movement from the ground.
How does a creep-meter works?
A Creep Meter uses a wire stretched across a fault to measure horizontal movement of the ground.
How does a creep meter work?

Does a creep meter measure vertical movement?

What creep in energy meter?
The Aluminium disc in energy meter continues to slowly rotate even if no current is supplied to the current coil . This rotation of the disc is known as creep .
What in electrical terms is creep?
Creep in electricity is the full revolution of the metal disk in a meter. The creep allows for one full revolution every ten minutes.
What measures horizontal movement?
a creep meter 100% sure
What is meant by creeping in energy meter?
Hii creep is a phenomenon that can adversely affect accuracy, that occurs when the meter disc rotates continuously with potential applied and the load terminals open circuited. A test for error due to creep is called a creep test.
Does a creep meter measure faults that moved in opposite directions?
yes
