Question

Seismic transducer for dispalcement and acceleration measurement

Answer 1

If the motion transducer in the seismic instrument measures the displacement of the mass relative to the base, the output of the transducer is proportional to the acceleration of the transducer base for a specific frequency range and the device is called an accelerometer .

Answer 2

Answer:

The Geodaq AST structural monitoring module is designed for embedment in concrete providing a complete measurement solution in a single robust housing. Each AST module includes a temperature compensated full bridge electrical resistance strain sensor, one single axis high-g accelerometer, one 3-axis low-g accelerometer, and one high resolution temperature sensor. The AST integrated measurement system provides the perfect solution for dynamic and static structural monitoring applications like rapid pile load testing, impact monitoring, and long term health monitoring.
