Equation (12) in the original article [1] gives the strain from the measured voltage on a full bridge configuration of the four strain gages. The full-bridge is intended to measure tension-compression strain (type III full-bridge), the correct equation is therefore [2]
and not
which corresponds to a type II full-bridge for bending measurements (see table 12.2 in [2]). κ is the gage factor, Vr the bridge output and Vex the excitation voltage.
The measurement uncertainty on the strain was given as (see equation (13) in [1]):
which holds only in case of type II full-bridge (Equation 3). For type III full-bridge, from Equation 2 and the rules for expressing uncertainty (see [3]), the uncertainty in the strain is:
□
A first order asymptotic approximation of Equation 2 gives
Finally, the order of magnitude of Vr during the experiments was of a few thousandth. The consequences of the bridge type error on the results (i.e. strain and measurement uncertainty on the strain) are therefore negligible.
