Measuring drag without a force transducer: a terminal velocity assay
1. Organisms live surrounded by air or water, which exert drag on an organism when moving. These forces are significant ecologically because they can affect organisms’ distribution, behaviour or dispersal. 2. Appropriate techniques for measuring or estimating these forces vary greatly depending on the magnitude of the forces and the flow pattern of the moving fluid (air or water; both gases and...
متن کاملStatic and fatigue strength of a fixation device transducer for measuring anterior cruciate ligament graft tension.
To determine which exercises do not overload the graft-fixation complex during intensive rehabilitation from reconstructive surgery of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), it would be useful to measure ACL graft loads during rehabilitative activities in vivo in humans. A previous paper by Ventura et al. (1998) reported on the design of an implantable transducer integrated into a femoral fixati...
متن کاملA force transducer for measuring mechanical properties of single cardiac myocytes.
We have described a transducer design capable of recording forces generated by single cardiac myocytes with sufficient temporal resolution to detect force responses to rapid length changes. Our force sensors were made from thin steel foils that act as cantilevers whose bending is monitored by reflection off a laser beam. Deflection of the laser beam is measured by a differential photodiode dete...
متن کاملDesign, Modeling, and Construction of a New Tactile Sensor for Measuring Contact-Force
This paper presents the design, modeling, and testing of a flexible tactile sensor and its applications. This sensor is made of polymer materials and can detect the 2D surface texture image and contact-force estimation. The sensing mechanism is based on the novel contact deflection effect of a membrane. We measure the deflection of the membrane with measuring the strain in the membrane with emb...
متن کاملDesign and Construction of a New Capacitive Tactile Sensor for Measuring Normal Tactile Force
This paper presents the design, construction and testing of a new capacitive tactile sensor for measurement of normal tactile force. The operation of proposed sensor has been investigated in ASTABLE and MONOSTABLE circuits. According to the results of these circuits the deviation of ASTABLE circuit results is less than MONOSTABLE circuit results. In addition, the results obtained from ASTABLE c...
