An Investigation on Dynamic Signals of MFC and PVDF Sensors: Experimental Work

In the present paper, identification of dynamic sensing characteristics of macrofiber composite (MFC) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is carried out via experimental investigation. As a first step, basic characteristics and operating principles of MFC and PVDF are briefly reviewed. Then, a clampe...
