A calculator for

Bending Beam - Half Poisson Bridge

Two active gages in uniaxial stress field - one aligned with maximum principal strain, the other with transverse "Poisson" strain.

 
Independent Variables
( Units for load and dimensions must coincide with those for elastic modulus. )
Load (lbf, etc.),
Elastic Modulus (lbf/in 2 , etc.),
Poisson's Ratio (nondimensional),
Distance from Load (in, etc.),
Width (in, etc.),
Thickness (in, etc.),
Gage Factor (nondimensional),
 
Dependent Variable
Axial Strain (microstrain),
Bridge Output (mV/V),
