Determination of equivalent circuit for PVDF shock-pressure gauges
Abstract
Broadband impedance measurements of a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) shock-pressure gauge are used to build an equivalent circuit for the gauge. The essential components are a gauge capacitance and a low-loss transmission line. Component features are consistent with the physical characteristics. With knowledge of this circuit, troublesome oscillations can be anticipated and prevented.
