Accéléromètre à cordes vibrantes : Le principe est le même qu'en 1°) [accéléromètre à quartz] : Une accélération suivant l'axe sensible modifie la tension de chaque corde, l'une augmentant, l'autre diminuant de la même quantité. Il en résulte une variation des fréquences de chaque corde, mesurées par des capteurs de fréquence. On montre que la différence des tensions, proportionnelle à la force spécifique suivant l'axe sensible est aussi proportionnelle à la différence des fréquences. 1, record 1, French, - acc%C3%A9l%C3%A9rom%C3%A8tre%20%C3%A0%20cordes%20vibrantes
