| Summary: | "After introducing the techniques behind the statistical design of experiments, the book discusses several technologies for implementing vibration isolation, the design of a high-accuracy pressure transducer, and the use of cold-wire thermometers for measuring rapidly fluctuating fluid temperatures. It then focuses on a basic piezoelectric actuator with nanometer resolution, before covering instruments used to measure the viscosity of liquids as well as two special classes of microphones and their important specialized applications. The book also presents statistical tools for experiments, the design and applications of thrust stands for measuring vector forces and torques, and the analysis and simulation of a shock calibrator. It concludes with a discussion of how shock testing machines can help reduce or prevent mechanical failures." "Spanning system dynamics, measurement, and control, this book addresses the needs of practicing engineers working in instrumentation fields. It focuses on instruments for various applications, from geophysics to mechanical and aerospace engineering."--BOOK JACKET. |
