Jerk and Jerk Sensor


Abstract eng:
This paper presents the principles and specifications of a new sensor for measuring the derivatives of acceleration. Derivative of acceleration is the first order differentiation of acceleration. It is also referred to as “Jerk”. Jerk is directly related to a physical damage process of materials and structures. The derivative of acceleration (jerk) has been found to have many useful applications. Examples are: high dynamic motion aerial vehicle trace measurement, earthquake-resistant mechanisms of structures, mechanisms of high speed auto-control of machines, human responses in high-speed moving vehicle and high-speed elevators.
