G U E S T E D I T O R I A L F E A T U R E S Noncontact Displacement Sensors in Automotive Manufacture Advances in noncontact displacement sensors are bringing new levels of quality and efficiency to the research labs and assembly lines of automakers worldwide. A Short Guide to Measurement Uncertainty No measurement device produces perfect results. Uncertainty analysis is one way to define how confident you are of your measurements. Uncertainty Analysis in Pitot Static Pneumatic Mass Flow Measurements The integrity of a mass flow rate measurement using a Pitot static technique should be a primary concern for low-flow applications because error in one of the calibration constants has an exaggerated effect when the difference between the total pressure and the static pressure is small. An Innovative Passive Solid-State Magnetic Sensor A new magnetic sensor technology is based on the magnetostrictive and the piezoelectric effects. The Principles of Level Measurement RF capacitance, conductance, hydrostatic tank gauging, radar, and ultrasonics are the leading sensor technologies in liquid level tank measurement and control operations. Making the wisest selection for your own application requires a basic understanding of how these devices work. Measuring Individual Wheel Noise How do you determine if your new wheel design is quieter, if Acoustic Wave Technology Sensors Acoustic wave sensors are extremely versatile devices that are just beginning to realize their commercial potential. This tutorial addresses acoustic wave sensor physics and materials, and the various types of acoustic wave sensors and their industrial applications. C O V E R S T O R Y / D A S Y S T E M S Getting Control Through CAN The CAN protocol has gained widespread popularity not only in the automotive industry but also in the industrial automation arena. Take a look at what it can do, and see how you can extend your control capabilities. D E P A R T M E N T S
