- Abstract
- The invention relates to improvements in electric wire resistance strain gages of the type which can be cemented to a surface so that deformation of the surface will change the resistance of the gage. The primary object of the present invention is to provide an electric wire resistance strain gage capable of measuring relatively large strains such as those in the plastic range of steel.
