Miniature semi-conductor strain-gauges of high-frequency response were employed to measure locally the strain on the exterior side of the plates and high-frequency response pressure transducers were used to measure time-dependent wall and total pressure.
"The Calibre 9452 MC, our first Poinçon de Genève movement, has been integrated in six of our models — for us, it is a gauge of the highest artisanal quality," said Helène Poulit-Duquesne, watch-marketing development director for Cartier at the company's offices in Paris.

When people refer to string gauges, they usually use the gauge of the high E string (the 1st string).
With the optimization of some variables by orthogonal design, the optimal condition obtained was 0.2 MPa (gauge pressure) of high pressure intensity, 30 min of low pressure duration and 20 s of high pressure duration.
But home building may rebound in coming months, economists said, with mortgage rates at a record low and building permits, a gauge of future construction, higher than last year's average.
Although patients generally indicate a greater preference for and decreased anxiety about the use of needles that are of shorter length and of higher gauge, this does not necessarily mean that needles that are longer and of lower gauge are more painful.
"So it's very difficult to get a gauge of underlying strength of High Street activity from these numbers, given so very big distorting factors".
Toyota, in documents posted on the NHTSA website, said the company and Takata are still trying to pinpoint the cause of the rupture and to gauge the influence of high absolute humidity.
The index, a major gauge of inflation, was significantly higher than its October reading of 4.4 percent, and it is far above the government's target level of 3 percent for this year, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.
