CW Inclinometry


Inclinometry was done as follows :

    Datasets  El Dirn     HST     mean leg temperatures   Humidity
                          start     start   middle   end       %
  ( 20041031  90  cw      02:02      6.1      6.5    6.9      70 )
    20041106  90  cw      00:40      5.9      5.5    5.2      85

The resulting CW model is compared below with the current one - that taken on 31 Oct :

  • The differences in (F1,F2,F3) between these two CW models are described by the rather large rms scatters of (0.65", 0.29", 0.83") c.f. (0.32", 0.21", 0.50"). previously.
  • The new CW model was merged with the (CW-CCW) template to create a new hybrid track model, which was installed at HST 16:15 on 08 November 2004.
  • Records of the symmetry have been updated, and show a sharp increase in asymmetry that may need confirming/monitoring. The strain gauge data were not recorded sensibly.
