Abstract
The long-term measurement stability of a magnetostrictive effect strain or stress sensor that uses an amorphous magnetic alloy excited by a magnetic field is improved by generating a magnetic field from an electric current formed from a superposed alternating current waveform and a recurring rectangular current waveform that has a larger amplitude at its start-up and which converges to a smaller amplitude after a predetermined time period or an electric current formed from a superposed direct current component and an alternating current component having constant amplitude and a frequency that varies in a recurring manner between a high frequency and a lower frequency.
