For the accuracy of inertial navigation systems for indoor localization it is important to get high quality sensor data of the multi-sensor system. This can be realized using high quality sensors or the developed 3D-self-calibration-method for low cost sensors. Based on the calibration procedure of the accelerometer (ACC) and the magnetic field sensor (MAG), the additional integration of the gyroscope (GYRO) leads to a reduction of the indoor positioning error. This improves both the approximation for the accelerometer, the magnetic field sensor and the gyroscope so that the standard deviation of a single sensor is minimized. There are errors in the whole system. To determine these error sources it is important to define the measurement uncertainty. In this paper it is presented that the measurement uncertainty can be reduced by the application of the developed 3D-self-calibration method.
Multichannel measuring systems are used to measure strains and accelerations during drop tests of containments for dangerous goods. Conventional systems require cabling of each sensor and co-falling of the cable harness, causing problems in the test preparation and execution. Promising results of a single cable measuring system, consisting of measuring modules with data bus connection and local data acquisition were obtained in laboratory investigations and full-scale drop tests.
The Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) is a materials testing apparatus primarily designed for the analysis of viscoplastic material behavior at very high strain rates.
Because of its complexity it is common practice to simplify the underlying exact mechanical theory by making strong assumptions. On the one hand this has to be done to achieve any results at all on the other hand one commits systematic errors. Therefore we utilize different numerical and Simulation methods to analyze and minimize these errors.
The Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) is a method for material characterization which works at strain rates from 102 - 104 1/s. This method can be used for example in the field of military engineering, in the field of deformation technology, automobile indurstry, aerospace industry or in other industrial fields. Controlled tests with the SHPB device enable Information about the dynamic material deformaion behaviour in the named strain rate area. The setup of the SHPB is not standarized and the measurement principle is dependent on simplifications. Due to this amongst others the problem with the dispersion of the measurement signal occurs. Furthermore it is possible that measurement uncertainties appear caused by the misalignment of the SHPB setup. In this work the influence of the alignment and a dispersion correction by pulse shaping is presented. On the one side for the alignment calibration tests are done. And on the other side for the dispersion influence correction with pulse shaping tests are done with TiA16V4. This material was choosen due to the fact that it can be compared with existing literature data.
