SEI/SEM 4722: Instrumentation Laboratory

This document outlines an experiment to characterize a Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT) and strain gauge sensor. The objectives are to obtain the characteristics and develop a mathematical equation for the sensors' responses. A timeline is provided for understanding the problem, conducting experiments and measurements, and writing a demo report. The report must include circuit diagrams, data/graphs, photos, and group member photos. Guiding questions are provided about LVDTs, strain gauges, their construction and use. Required equipment includes a transducer trainer, multimeter, oscilloscope, and components. Additional online resources are also listed.
