Wheatstone Bridge
The strain gauge is connected into a Wheatstone Bridge circuit with a
combination of four active gauges (full bridge), two gauges (half bridge), or,
less commonly, a single gauge (quarter bridge)
As stress is applied to the bonded strain gauge, a resistive changes takes
place and unbalances the Wheatstone Bridge.
This results in a signal output, related to the stress value. As the signal value
is small, (typically a few millivolts) the signal conditioning electronics provides
amplification to increase the signal level to 5 to 10 volts, a suitable level for
application to external data collection systems such as recorders or PC Data
Acquistion and Analysis Systems.

Characteristics of
Measurement System Elements
Static/Steady-State Characteristic
The relationship between input I (constant value or
changing slowly) and output O.
It has three kind of characteristic:
Systematic Characteristic = Those can be exactly
quantified by mathematical or graphical means
Statistical Characteristic = Identification of static
characteristic.
Generalized Model = To represent static and dynamic
characteristic in term of block diagram and mathematical
form.

Characteristics of
Measurement System Elements
Dynamic Characteristic
The ways in which an element responds to sudden input
changes.
These are most conveniently summarized using a transfer
function G(s).
