Applying Digital Image Correlation to Biological Materials
نویسندگان
چکیده
Digital image correlation has become a common method for determining mechanical properties of rigid engineering materials. By comparing digital images of the material before and after deformation, strain and displacement response can be determined. In the current work, we expand this method for use on soft biological materials, in particular skin. Specifically, we show that digital image correlation can be used to determine mechanical properties of skin under different conditions, including displacement, uniaxial tension, and elevated temperature.
