What Does GF Stand For?
GF stands for Gage Factor
Gage Factor (GF) is a dimensionless coefficient that quantifies the sensitivity of a strain gauge, representing the ratio of fractional change in electrical resistance to the fractional change in length (strain) of the material being measured. It is a critical parameter in applications involving stress analysis, structural health monitoring, and material deformation studies, facilitating accurate measurements of mechanical strain through electrical signals.
