Research on a New Stress Sensor Based on the Amorphous Alloy

Abstract:

Amorphous alloy material has good soft magnetic properties, so it can be used for stress measurement. At first, the working principle of the stress measurement was analyzed. Secondly its output characteristic mathematical model was established by adopting multivariate linear regression analysis method, and the simulation of the mathematical model was made based on Matlab. Finally a practice measurement with Fe-base TM—M Amorphous alloy was completed. The results of the test have showed that the stress measurement method has some characteristics of being sensitiveness to measure and simple to make a testing system, and a promising method of measuring stress.
