Introduction: Load Sensing Bearing (LSB)
• Why would we like to measure forces?
• Monitoring the mechanical loads of a bearing.
• Control the active safety systems in vehicles like the ABS (longitudinal force) and ESC (lateral force).
• Measure the vertical load in, for instance, trucks.

Conclusions: lateral force estimation
• In the semi-static frequency range the strain gauges as well as the
Eddy-current sensors can be used for force estimation with errors ranging from 15 % - 20 %.
…– Eddy-current sensors measurements – Field- / validation measurements – BETSY calibration method - Conclusions
• In the dynamic frequency range the lateral force is not correlated with
the strain and ABS-ring deflection.• Regarding the Eddy-current sensors BETSY can be used for
calibration.• Regarding the strain gauges sensors BETSY cannot be
used for calibration.

Introduction: Load Sensing Bearing
• What forces act on a vehicle?
• 3 forces:• Fx = longitudinal force • Fy = lateral force• Fz = vertical force
• 3 moments:• Mx = moment around the x-axis• My = moment around the y-axis• Mz = moment around the z-axis

BETSY calibration
By describing both sides of the V-shape by a 1st order polynomial two coefficients, Ca and Cb, can be derived for both positive and negative Fy to transform te one to the other. (So 4 coefficients in total).

Recommendations
• Errors obtained with estimation using the Eddy-current sensor are mainly caused by the rubber seal and low value algorithm.
• This research focused on Fy. Next: Fx, Fz
• Online testing
• Excite with higher amount of dynamic forces
