Abstract The design, construction and use of liquidmercury strain gages are described. Gage-fabrication techniques and associated circuitry are discussed. A theoretical description of gage operation is also presented. Application of the liquid-mercury strain gage to the study of cruciate-kneeligament deformation is described.In vitro measurements on canine stifle joints and human-cadaver knees are presented.In vivo measurements on canines are also given.
