3.Cantilever beam measures bending strain then converting to radial strain

4.Capacitive Proximity Sensor

Some Open Questions

1. Laser measurement, what kind of sensor? dimension to fit in triaxial cell?

2. What's the best material for a cantilever beam so that the stiffness

is suitable for the application?

3. Strain gauge: What's the configuration of the resistors?

sensitivity of the strain gauge?

4. Capacitive Proximity Sensor, can it withhold 1MPa cell pressure?
