PARAMETRICAL MODELING OF THE STRAIN GAUGED FORCE AND/OR PRESSURE TRANSDUCERS
Dan Mihai Stefanescu, Lia Dolga, Adrian Marinescu
Abstract:
The paper deals with a strain gauge transducer that can alternatively measure force or pressure. The functional employment of the transducer is explained. In determining the optimal geometry of the elastic element, the authors employ the parametric and feature based CAD modeling, together with the finite element analysis. This ensures flexible and interactive modifications of the geometry and the correlation with the manufacturing process. Finally, the optimal solution is translated and stored in STEP format, a system independent geometric model that is compatible with any modeling environment.
