RDS: DMS für die Bestimmung der Rissfortpflanzung

Mit den Rissmessstreifen RDS kann an einem Bauteil die Rissfortpflanzung ermittelt werden. HBK bietet hierzu vier verschiedene Typen an:

  • RDS20 und RDS40 bestehen aus elektrisch getrennten Leiterbahnen (Widerständen), d. h., wenn sich der Riss ausbreitet, werden einzelne Stromkreise unterbrochen. Werden diese einzeln kontaktiert, so kann auch die Richtung der Rissausbreitung detektiert werden. In diesem Fall werden durch die Rissausbreitung einzelne Schaltkreise unterbrochen.
  • RDS17.8 und RDS22 bestehen aus parallel geschalteten Leiterbahnen, die reißen, wenn sich der Riss unter dem Rissmessstreifen fortpflanzt. Hierdurch wird der elektrische Widerstand des Messstreifens mit dem Risswachstum stufenweise erhöht.

This change in resistance can be measured using a resistance meter or strain gauge amplifier.

Connecting a crack propagation gauge and detecting signals

A resistance measurement can be used to detect the signal of the RDS crack propagation gauges. HBK DAQ systems can be used for this application (e.g. QuantumX or MGCplus).

The resulting resistance (R) of the RDS is dependent on the number of torn links and can easily be calculated. In this case, n identical resistors (Ri) are connected in parallel:

If a grid line is interrupted, this is described by

However, the measurement can be performed just as well with a measuring amplifier for SG measurements. The circuit diagram sketch shows how the RDS has to be complemented to obtain a resistance change that is inside the measuring range of an amplifier for strain gauge quarter bridges.

To minimize the effects of temperature, temperature-stable fixed resistors or SGs should be used as completion resistors. Greater sensitivity can be obtained by selecting a parallel resistor with a higher resistance value.
