The interaction between a strain gauge and its substratum is investigated for the special case of a one-dimensional gauge adhesively bonded to a half-plane. The influence on the strain distribution of the properties of the underlying material, of strain-gauge design, and of adhesive properties is demonstrated by numerical examples.
