Describe the working principle of the measurement system/technique that you chose.

Measurement Techniques – Strain/Stress and

Temperature

  1. Choose a measurement technique that you want to investigate (from subject 1 or subject
  2. Write a short project report (5 pages with references) including the following:

1) Describe the working principle of the measurement system/technique that you chose.

2) Describe the advantages and disadvantages of the measurement system/technique that you chose against other measurement methods (at least two). Discuss the

characteristics in terms of measurement range, cost, stability, sensitivity, and

linearity, and so on. (For example, thermocouple vs. RTDs vs. Infrared radiators)

3) Describe the particular applications of the measurement system/technique that you chose.

4) Discuss what you learned from your research.
