Summary
The subject deals with problematics of measurement and experiment. Main topics are electrical measurements of mechanical quantities, analogue and digital processing of the measured signal, principles of strain gauges measurements and fotoelasticimetry. Students will get acquainted with basic constructs and quantities in experimental mechanics, with various types of transducers and with the ways of measuring mechanical quantities.
