Title: Response of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVF/sub 2/) gauges to structured waveforms

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6406984

An experimental approach is demonstrated in which the charge-stress characteristics of PVF/sub 2/ stress gauges can be examined in detail under conditions of relatively complex loading and unloading. In this approach, the gauge current and its axial stress history are measured simultaneously during the passage of a structured wave.
