How do piezoelectric accelerometers — vibration sensors — work? The force caused by vibration or a change in motion (acceleration) causes the sensor's mass to “squeeze” contained piezoelectric ...
“Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology such as accelerometers for measuring acceleration and gyroscopes for measuring angular velocity have been implemented within several related devices ...
Kistler announced the availability of its three-component force sensors and piezoelectric accelerometers to meet the rigorous demands of satellite and spacecraft force limited vibration testing (FLV).
