Investigating how the resistance of a strain gauge attached to a piece of wood varies with the temperature of the wood.
The humidity also changes..
I need to focus on like how the strain gauge is going to be attached to the wood. The range and precision of instruments that I’d use. Factors that need to be controlled.
The gauge is attached to the object by a suitable adhesive, such as superglue. As the object is deformed, the foil is deformed, causing its electrical resistance to change.
ps. PM Pinks, or TLK or Divinelight :hehe:
(in fact check out Pinks blog she even posted pictures some experiment similar to your requirements, but of-course on much rigorous level )
