Abstract

An impedance gauge based on measurement of strains at two different cross-sections of a conical gauge rod is tested. The gauge rod is in contact with the object at its narrow end while its wide end is driven by a harmonic vibrator. The length of the gauge rod is 260 mm and its end diameters are 9·8 mm and 20·1 mm. For cylindrical test objects a fair agreement is generally obtained between experimental and theoretical point impedances in the frequency range 50 Hz to 5 kHz. Further improvements in accuracy are expected to be feasible.
