Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If data processing is limited to a single built-in displacement meter, then the device complexity is reduced and ease of operation is improved, but the adaptability to process data from multiple sensors is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The data processing device is designed to handle data from multiple displacement meters simultaneously by implementing a universal calculation framework that can process inputs from any number of sensors. The system creates calculation equations that accept multiple displacement meter inputs and computes various characteristic values (deflection, curvature, stress) from these multiple sources, making the device adaptable to different testing configurations without requiring separate processing systems for each sensor type.
2Measurement precision
If multiple sensors are connected to the data processing device, then the measurement precision and analysis capability are improved, but the device complexity and difficulty of operation are worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically performs data acquisition, substitution into calculation equations, and characteristic value computation without requiring manual intervention. The data processing device self-manages the complex tasks of collecting data from multiple displacement meters, substituting these values into the appropriate calculation equations, and generating the desired characteristic values, thereby maintaining ease of operation while achieving high measurement precision through multi-sensor integration.
3Productivity
If real-time data processing from multiple sensors is implemented, then the productivity and analysis speed are improved, but the computational complexity and energy consumption are worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-defines calculation equations that are ready for immediate substitution with sensor data. By having the calculation framework prepared in advance with all necessary equations for various characteristic values (deflection, curvature, stress), the system can perform real-time processing without undergoing complex computational setup during operation, thus achieving high productivity with controlled energy consumption.
