Strain gauges detect touch by measuring the deformation or strain in a material when force is applied. When a person touches the surface, the strain gauge experiences a change in resistance due to the bending or stretching of its material. This change in electrical resistance is then converted into a measurable signal, indicating the presence and magnitude of the touch. This technology is commonly used in touch-sensitive applications like touchscreens and pressure-sensitive devices.
Bounded strain gauges are designed to operate within a specific range of strain, providing accurate measurements only within that limit, while unbounded strain gauges can theoretically measure strain without a predefined limit, allowing for broader applications. Bounded gauges typically feature a protective element that restricts their range, ensuring reliability and precision under controlled conditions. In contrast, unbounded strain gauges may be used in scenarios where extreme strains are expected, though they may sacrifice some accuracy and stability. The choice between the two depends on the application requirements and the expected strain conditions.
Thermal effects can significantly influence strain measurement by altering the dimensions and properties of materials. Temperature changes can cause expansion or contraction, leading to erroneous readings if not properly accounted for. Additionally, the sensitivity of strain gauges to temperature fluctuations may introduce noise in the measurements, necessitating temperature compensation techniques to ensure accuracy. Thus, understanding and mitigating thermal effects is crucial for reliable strain analysis in engineering applications.
This is not technically possible. A touch screen has an overlay that is able to detect pressure. The PSP does not have an overlay. Even if you added the overlay, there would not be any interface on the circuit board to plug it in or any support for it in the firmware.
The Deviant Strain was created in 2005.
No Soul No Strain was created in 415.
The essential difference is that the bonded strain gauges are bonded on to the specimen whose strain is being measured whereas the unbonded strain gauges are not bonded on to the specimen. As the bonded strain gauges are well bonded on to the specimen, the entire strain being experienced by the specimen is transferred to the strain gauge. However, the bonded strain gauges are affected by temperature changes and also due to transverse strains.For transverse strains and ambient temperature compensations, suitable circuits for compensation can be used using Wheatstone's bridge. The unbonded strain gauges cannot transfer the strain of the specimen to the strain gauge and hence it is used mainly for displacement, or pressure or force transducers. It is least affected by transverse strain and temperature compensation of unbonded gauges cis automatically eliminated using Wheatstone's bridge.

A strain gauge is used to measure the strain of an object. It was invented by the inventors Edward Simmons and Arthur Ruge in 1938. There are several types of gauges (metallic, capacitance, photo-electrics and semiconductor gauges).
Factors affecting the accuracy of strain gauges include temperature fluctuations, mechanical stress on the gauge, incorrect mounting techniques, and electrical noise interference. These factors can lead to variations in the resistance of the strain gauge, impacting the accuracy of the strain measurement.
The strain gage indicates strain, and the stress is from Hooke's law; stress = modulus times strain so you need to know the modulus of elasticity
In many typical installations, it is used in strain gauges.

To detect a force, you typically need a material that can undergo deformation or displacement due to the force. Materials like strain gauges, piezoelectric crystals, or accelerometers are commonly used to detect forces in various applications. These materials can convert the force applied to them into measurable outputs like electrical signals or changes in shape.
Strain gauges are used to measure mechanical deformation in various applications such as structural testing, material testing, and stress analysis. They are commonly used in industries like aerospace, automotive, and civil engineering to monitor the strain and stress levels in structures and components. By detecting changes in resistance caused by deformation, strain gauges provide valuable data for evaluating the performance and safety of materials and structures.
"Mechanical Strain gauges" do not have inductance. There are many types of strain gauge: Mechanical, photoelastic, electrical etc.... Are you wanting the inductance of an electrical strain gauge? if so which type?
