Introduction to Component Strength Assessments with SGs

The key topics in this seminar are connecting strain gauges, determining the selection criteria for strain gauge DAQ systems and compensating for parasitic effects. 

This seminar provides the theoretical and practical knowledge required for a confident experimental stress analysis, which can be used for verification of FEM models. This Master Course (Course 3) in compliance with VDI/VDE/GESA 2636 ideally complements Course 1 (The Basics of Strain Gauge Installation and Strain Gauge Measurement Technology) and Course 2 (Measuring with strain gauges—planning, connecting and analyzing) in this series.

Knowledge taught in a practical setting - by professionals, for professionals: In the numerous exercise units during the seminar, you will have the opportunity of intuitively learning how to work confidently with Perception. HBK Academy ONLINE courses are delivered in real-time with an instructor available to answer questions.

Topics included

• The basics of experimental stress analysis and experimental design
• Calculating principal-strain and principal-stress values
• Material behavior, Hooke's Law, stress-strain ratio
• Systematics of stress states
• Multi-axial stress state and strength
• Equivalent stresses and damage hypotheses
• How to handle residual stress?
• Anisotropic materials
• Strength evaluation with time-dependent loading (S-N curve, short-term, static, and endurance strength)
• Classifying strain data
• Determining total damage
• Durability/fatigue life prediction

Target Group

Engineers who evaluate strain measurements.

Requirements

It is a good idea to take Course "Measuring with Strain Gauges (SG 2)" first, but it is not mandatory.
