A Flexible Strain Sensor Based on a Conductive Polymer Composite for in situ Measurement of Parachute Canopy Deformation
A sensor based on a Conductive Polymer Composite (CPC), fully compatible with a textile substrate and its general properties, has been developed in our laboratory, and its electromechanical RCA characterization is presented herein.In particular the effects of strain rate (from 10 to 1,000 mm/min) and of repeated elongation cycles on the sensor beha
