A formal consensus standard for a version of the generic Bauer PVDF shock stress sensor is being defined by a panel broadly experienced in the techniques of PVDF sensor application. The evolving standard addresses points essential to accurate shock measurement with PVDF gauges. It covers the materials, dimensions, proportions, processing, inspection, calibration, certification, tolerances, and application for PVDF elements. The formal standard will be available for voluntary use by the shock stress community as a guide for selection procurement, application, and analysis of this useful new shock measurement tool. 4 refs.
