A Comprehensive Guide to the Fundamentals of Electronic Measurement Technology

Strain is the single most important measurement during aircraft fatigue testing. The accuracy and precision of strain gauge measurements is of the greatest importance to exactly determine the durability and damage tolerance of a structure. The higher a structure is in the ‘pyramid of test’, the higher the test complexity, number of measurement channels, and data produced. On top of that the risk in terms of time delay and cost associated to a test program increases more than proportional with the increase in test complexity. Here are six tips to help you choose the right data acquisition system for your fatigue test:

Historically, connecting your data acquisition (DAQ) system to the cloud involved complex networking setups, manual configurations, and tedious coding. With GI.bench, cloud integration is now seamless—pair your controller to GI.cloud with one click, making secure, remote data access easier than ever before.

Automobiles have a variety of electrically operated drives. Be it the sunroof, the window lifter, the seat adjustment or the trunk lid, everywhere you look, you’ll find electric motors that provide us comfort in our cars.
