Return to the shorted and shunted quartz gauge problem: Analysis with the SUBWAY code

Conference ·
OSTI ID:110706

Simulations with finite element models of well controlled impact experiments with x-cut quartz gauges have been performed with the transient electromechanics code SUBWAY. Comparisons of measured gauge output current with calculated output current were made for four fully-electroded gauge configurations, involving two different can spacings and potting materials. The observed good agreement between measured and calculated currents provides a basis for confidence in the basic capabilities of the code.
