Tips: What is a vibrating wire strain gauge?

The vibrating wire strain gauge is a high-precision sensor based on the principle that the vibration frequency of a steel string changes with tension. It is widely used for long-term health monitoring of structures such as bridges, dams, buildings, and pipelines. Its core construction includes mounting blocks at both ends, a tensioned steel string in the middle, and electromagnetic coils for excitation and frequency pickup. When the monitored structure deforms, the relative displacement between the end blocks alters the steel string's tension, thereby changing its natural vibration frequency. By measuring this frequency and applying temperature compensation via an internal thermistor, microstrain can be precisely calculated. Offering significant advantages such as excellent long-term stability, strong interference resistance, and long-distance transmission capability, it reliably reflects stress conditions.
