Piezomagnetic, magneto-strictive, or electro-strictive material particles may also be distributed throughout the structural material of the structural member, which serve to amplify and otherwise enhance the signals from the piezoelectric material particles. The piezoelectric, electro-strictive, magneto-strictive, and/or piezomagnetic material particles may allow the structural member to exhibit an electrical and/or magnetic response to forces on the structural member, such as accelerations. This may allow the structural member to function as a force sensor or an accelerometer. Signals induced by such external forces or accelerations may be taken from the conductive pickups and used for various operations, for example, for arming a warhead of a missile or for triggering passenger safety features such as air bags in automobiles.
