Experimental and computational investigations of force prediction methodology from force balances for short duration applications

Abstract

Force measurement is one of the vital areas of research which is essential in the design of any mechanical or electromechanical systems Due to lack of sophisticated testing and force prediction on the scaled models in the design phase a lot of failures are encountered over the decades for various vehicles such as ships rockets airplanes internal combustion engines etc However in recent years rate of failures of such kind were reduced due to the development in force measurement facilities
