Design/functionality of piezoelectric sensors

Design/functionality of piezoelectric sensors

(OP)
I am seeking design and functionality information on piezoelectric sensors used for fast shock pressure measurements. A review article or book addressing the subject would be ideal.

Thank you.

RE: Design/functionality of piezoelectric sensors

(OP)
I have yet to turn up a direct hit on what my engineer is requesting, though I have found a few papers and book citations which may help. I thought someone at Eng-Tips might be able to point to a volume right on their shelves that addresses this issue directly.

But I am still looking.

RE: Design/functionality of piezoelectric sensors

Kistler's web site might get you started:

RE: Design/functionality of piezoelectric sensors

(OP)
Kistler was somewhat helpful; however, I still haven't zeroed in on a good description of how to design one of these sensors and perform fast pressure measurements.

Any other ideas? Thanks.

RE: Design/functionality of piezoelectric sensors

Amazon.com lists quite a few books on designing transducers with piezoelectrics.

RE: Design/functionality of piezoelectric sensors

(OP)
I found the first article, but not the second. Thanks! I have forwarded the Amazon list to my engineer. I think we have put together a good assortment of stuff for him to examine. Many thanks for the help.
