A CAPACITANCE STRIP SENSOR FOR MEASURING DYNAMIC TYRE FORCES. SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROAD TRAFFIC MONITORING
A novel capacitative strip sensor for measuring moving dynamic wheel forces has been designed, developed, and tested. The principle features of the sensor are linear response, insensitivity to loading width and pressure, and static calibration. The design of the sensor and the operation of the signal processing are described. The theoretical performance of the sensor is considered, and the results of full-scale tests using an instrumented lorry are presented. (Author/TRRL)
