Abstract

Small piezoelectric sensing elements were embedded in surfaces in attempt to measure local interface loads and load distributions. Laboratory scale apparatus were used to study interface loads in upset forging and sheet metal forming friction tests. Normal load distributions which correspond to accepted load distributions were obtained in upset forging tests. Forces tangent to a cylindrical pin during drawing of sheet metal strips over the pin were measured. In addition arrays of small, thin-film sensors were fabricated and shown to work for measuring load distributions.
