Abstract:
The aim of this article is to determine piezoresistive sensitivity of elastomer nanostructured carbon composites at dynamic loading tests and show the piezoresistive effect correlations to various frequencies of applied mechanical force in a manner that could provide a parameter of the highest detectible dynamic load frequency. This parameter is crucial when determining sensor’s usability in possible applications. There are only few articles on conductive polymer composite sensitivity in dynamic mechanical loading tests.With this article we are trying to estimate the values of dynamic loading frequencies in which sensor would be functional.
