It uses a liquid mass-block and a symmetrical-electrodes metal-core polyvinylidene fluoride fiber(SMPF)as the sensor element. The output signal of the sensor has an exponential relationship with the excitation amplitude of the impacting vibration. It is capable of detecting the amplitude and the correct frequency for sinusoidal excitations using an exponential correlation. The experiments indicate that both the output signal of the sensor and the resonance frequency increase substantially with increasing diameter of the metal core. The first-order resonance frequencies of the sensors with 40,60,and 80 μm diameter metal wires are below 10 Hz,which is near the range of human body motion frequencies.展开更多

Multiple electromagnetic pulses will be coupled and transmitted to electronic devices through the cables.Accumulative effects are generated, which make it easier for damage to occur in the electronic devices. In this article, the working principle of micro-silicon acceleration sensors is introduced. The accumulative effects of multiple pulses on acceleration sensors is studied by a large number of injection experiments.The accumulation trends of multiple pulses with different pulse numbers and intervals are analyzed. The damaged structures inside abnormal sensor amplifiers were observed via optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The experimental results show that the accumulative effect is strengthened with increased pulse number or decreased pulse interval, and the threshold voltage for multiple pulses on the acceleration sensor decreases. The threshold voltage for a single pulse is 321.57 V. When the pulse interval is 1 μs and the pulse number is 5, the threshold voltage for multiple pulses is 163.42 V,which is reduced by 49.12% compared with a single pulse. These results provide a reference for the damage design of electromagnetic pulse weapons.展开更多

Accurate representation of vehicle acceleration behavior provides important inputs to traffic simulation models especially when traffic related emissions need to be estimated. A smart eye TDS （traffic data sensor） system was used to record vehicle trajectories, which were extracted to calculate vehicle acceleration profiles. This paper presents the acceleration distributions obtained from over 300 passenger-car acceleration cycles observed on site from the stop line up to a maximum speed of 40 km/h. These distributions are compared with the outputs from a traffic micro simulation tool modeling a similar stop line scenario. The comparison shows that measured accelerations present wider distribution and lower values than the micro simulation. This result highlights the importance of using acceleration distribution calibrated with real-world measured data rather than default values in order to estimate accurate emission levels.展开更多

A three-point bending technique was presented to measure the piezoresistivity, which used a bending stress applied to the samples while making MWNT films wheeling with a rotational machine. The experimental results showed that the fractional increase in resistance increases linearly versus the increase of centripetal acceleration, and there is a linear relationship between the acceleration and the strain. These shed light on using carbon nanotube films as acceleration sensors for many potential applications.展开更多
