DEFORMATION DISTRIBUTION DURING MECHANICAL TESTS OF CYLINDRICAL STEEL ROD USING DIGITAL IMAGE CORRELATION

Measurement of Creep Deformation across Welds in 316H Stainless Steel Using Digital Image Correlation

Spatially resolved measurement of creep deformation across weldments at high temperature cannot be achieved using standard extensometry approaches. In this investigation, a Digital Image Correlation (DIC) based system has been developed for long-term high-temperature creep strain measurement in order to characterise the material deformation behaviour of separate regions of a multi-pass weld. Th...

Creep Deformation Measurement of 316H Stainless Steel Multi-pass Welded Joints using Digital Image Correlation

A high temperature measurement system for creep deformation based on the digital image correlation (DIC) technique is described. The new system is applied to study the behaviour of a multi-pass welded joint in a high temperature tensile test and a load controlled creep test at 545°C. Spatially resolved tensile properties and time dependent creep deformation properties across a thick section typ...

Study On The Deformation Band Characteristics In Mild Steel Using Digital Image Correlation

This study investigates the strain localizations associated with Lüders deformation in mild steel using digital image correlation (DIC), a non contact, nondestructive, full field measurement technique for strain mapping. The focus is on the two substantial areas of interest such as shear deformation accompanying strain localization during Lüders instability and the complex morphology of Lüders ...

Investigation of optimal digital image correlation patterns for deformation measurement

Digital image correlation (DIC) relies on the visible surface features of a specimen to measure deformation. When the specimen itself has little to no visible features, a pattern is applied to the surface which deforms with the specimen and acts as artificial surface features. Since recent pattern application methods, e.g., micro-stamping [1] and lithography [2] allow for the application of hig...
