Crystal measures short-term, large-magnitude forces
Abstract
By using the magnitude of piezoelectric crystal response to distortion and compression, this device measures transient accelerations and their rate of change. The invention could be used in a servo control system by supplementing the accelerometer and taking over its function when its range was exceeded.
