Research Reports and Memoranda

This work represents a study of the deformation of the membranes used in the construction of aneroid capsules under the influence of a difference in pressure between the two faces and seeks to determine the influence of the various factors which concern their construction, i.e., thickness of metal, the width and depth of the corrugations and the diameter of the membrane. The influence exerted by the thickness of the metal and the diameter are self evident but the other two factors have a much more complex effect.
