Abstract

This paper describes an electrically calibrated plethysmograph which may be used with all lengths of mercury-in-rubber strain gauges. Due to the very low resistance of these strain gauges, electrical calibration of previously available plethysmographs has suffered from errors caused by lead-wire resistance. The present instrument eliminates lead-wire errors by a design which effectively places the strain gauge at the corners of the measurement bridge. Linearity of the output for large changes in gauge resistance has been insured by the incorporation of a constant-current bridge supply.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
