HBM has launched a special-interest online portal on experimental stress analysis (ESA) that can be accessed through a single link (www.hbm.com/stressanalysis) to celebrate its 50th anniversary of being involved the development and production of strain gages (SG) for ESA.

The Stress Analysis portal provides focused information on ESA, including applications reports, technical lectures, newsletters, articles, and other publications covering the past 50 years.

The site covers technical definitions, examples of applications, and the services and the training programs of the HBM Academy. A survey on the measurement chain is the HBM Academy. A survey on the measurement chain is included that covers:

  • strain gages,

  • additional transducers,

  • amplifiers,

  • measurement factors, and

  • visualization and analysis software.

A PDF version of the renowned reference book “An Introduction to Measurements Using Strain Gages” by Karl Hoffmann can be read online. This book is often called the bible of experimental stress analysis by structural engineers.

The portal enables anyone interested in ESA to benefit from HBM's wealth of experience – as a single source supplier offering the appropriate complete solution – gained from 50 years as the global leader in measurement using strain gages.

Visit the HBM's ESA portal at www.hbm.com/stressanalysis today.
