Abstract:This paper presents the design and construction of a device for measuring compressive force of engineering and biomaterials. The device was calibrated and tested. The results obtained show that the device is adequate for measuring compressive force, ranging from 0-100kN in a situation where a percentage error of up to 0.4% is permissible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
