c'est un tableau qui donne les unités avec lesquelles on a mesuré les déformations qui s'expriment en picometres comme on pourrait dire millimètres
Mais ils écrivent en abrégé
Il manque un chiffre devant ou derrière pico

pico strain level
niveau de contrainte picométrique / sensibilité à la pico-seconde


Explanation:
Longtemps réservés à des marchés de niche, les capteurs à fibre optique s'imposent désormais dans de multiples applications industrielles. Un secteur en particulier profite de cet essor : la mesure de contraintes. Dans ce domaine, les fibres optiques n'ont plus rien à envier aux jauges métalliques.

La sensibilité est à la pico-seconde.

disagree  Tony M: I don't believe strain is measured in pm — but in any case, certainly not in ps.

pico strain level
niveau de contrainte pico


Explanation:
Strain gauage = jauge de contrainte

The 'pico' refers to the tiny strain levels that can be measured in units appropriate for strain — but current usage in the field seems to suggest that the units are not normally expressed.

'strain' is expressed as a ratio, so has no units.

agree  Marielle Akamatsu: OK pour "niveau de déformation pico" - sans métrique.Strain = déformation, exprimée sans unités.
