Help me S beam load cell as gravity sensor

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the design of a gravity sensor using an S beam load cell to measure acceleration in the x, y, and z axes. The user seeks guidance on how to adapt the load cell for this purpose, noting that they have completed the load cell component but lack ideas for its manipulation into a functional gravity sensor. There is an emphasis on understanding that gravity measurements can vary slightly based on location, with specific values mentioned. The conversation highlights the need for technical insights on integrating the load cell into a gravity sensing application. The user is looking for practical advice to advance their project.

hye guys...
i need to do some design which need me to use S beam load cell as gravity sensor...anyone have ideas about my project?

By gravity sensor do you mean it should be capable of measuring the acceleration due to gravity g where you have it? So it might read 9.804 m/s^2 at someplace in the world and 9.808 m/s^2 somewhere else.

yes...i need to design gravity sensor that capable 2 to measure acceleration in x, y and z axis...now I am already done my S load cell only...i don't have idea to manipulate it to gravity sensor...
 

Thread 'Radiation Hard Electronic Design for LVO Long Mission'

Venus does not have a magnetosphere, so the Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) environment shall be much worse than in a LEO environment. Looking to the std radiation models for Venus, the standard radiation-hard space level electronic component with tested immunity LET = 85 MeV-cm2/mg seems not enough, so, for example, a 1cm2 Si die will suffer considerable flux above this level during a long mission (10 years for example). So, the question is, usually we are not paying attention to latch-up...

Thread 'Space Stuff and Launch Info'

Due to the constant never ending supply of "cool stuff" happening in Aerospace these days I'm creating this thread to consolidate posts every time something new comes along. Please feel free to add random information if its relevant. So to start things off here is the SpaceX Dragon launch coming up shortly, I'll be following up afterwards to see how it all goes. :smile: https://blogs.nasa.gov/spacex/

Thread 'SpaceX Starship development: 7th flight January 10'

Watch the progress live This is a fully stacked Starship (top) and Super Heavy (bottom). A couple of too-small-to-see cars near the bottom for scale, I also added a Saturn V and the Statue of Liberty for comparison. 120 meters tall, about 5000 tonnes when fully fueled. Twice the mass and over twice the thrust of Saturn V. The largest rocket ever built by mass, thrust, height, and payload capacity. N1 had the largest diameter.[/size] But its size is not the revolutionary part. It is designed...
