      What is the smallest strain (smallest resolution of strain?

      Which is the smallest increment for reading strain

      he following table provides an overview of the smallest achievable resolutions:

      Resolution Technology
      ca. 0,01μm/m ... 0,1μm/m Metal foil strain gauges
      ca. 0,001 μm/m ... 0,01 μm/m Semiconductor strain gauges
      ca. 100 μm/m photoelasticity
      ca. 100 μm/m varnish
