Dic Technique

A simple and practical full-frame single-camera stereo-digital image correlation (stereo-DIC) technique for three-dimensional (3D) shape, displacement, and deformation measurements is proposed. The technique uses a compact X-cube prism-based color separation device and a color camera to capture images of blue and red colors from different optical paths, and then extracts the surface 3D shape and deformation information of a test sample by processing the captured two sub-channel color images using regular stereo-DIC algorithm. Compared with the existing full-frame single-camera stereo-DICs, the proposed one eliminates the need for a beam splitter and two bandpass filters to capture images, and offers more simple, compact, and easy-to-use optical arrangement. This novel single-camera stereo-DIC technique was validated by a series of baseline experiments involving 3D surface reconstructions, translation tests, and full-field deformation measurements, which provide a new flexible and practical avenue for measuring surface 3D shape and deformation, particularly in microscopic and high-speed applications.

Deformation Measurements

This paper compares the technology and the performances of three ultra high speed cameras for full-field deformation measurements with Digital image correlation or the grid method. The three cameras are based on multiple CCD sensors (Cordin 550-62, with rotating mirror or DRS IMACON 200 with gated intensified CCDs) or dedicated chip (Shimadzu HPV). The advantages and limitations of these cameras are critically reviewed.

Dic Technique

The aim of this paper is to assess and compare the performance of both high speed 2D and 3D digital image correlation (DIC) configurations in the characterization of unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites in high strain rate tension in the transverse direction. The criteria for assessment were in terms of strain resolution and measuring the strain localization within the gauge section. Results showed the high-speed 3D DIC technique has lower strain resolution compared to the high-speed 2D DIC technique. In addition, the analysis of the full strain fields indicated that the 3D DIC technique could accurately locate and measure the concentrations of strains within the gauge section of the tested samples.

Abstract The flow-induced vibration of a flexible splitter plate behind a circular cylinder is investigated experimentally in this study. Unlike previous studies that mainly devoted to flow dynamics, the full-field three-dimensional (3D) dynamic deformation of a splitter plate behind a cylinder in the wind tunnel is measured with an easy-to-implement, compact but practical single-camera high-speed (SCHS) stereo-digital image correlation (DIC) system. The system parameters of the wind tunnel, the configuration of the SCHS-DIC system, and the measurement principles are introduced first. Then, the effectiveness, accuracy, and stability of the SCHS stereo-DIC system are verified by the deformation measurements of the high-stiffness fixed cylinder. Finally, the full-field dynamic 3D deformation measurements of different splitter plates are carried out under different wind speeds. Results of the polyvinyl chloride (PVC) splitter plate show that the out-of-plane deformation is much larger than in-plane deformation. The maximum deformation occurs at the tip region of the plate, the position of which can move non-periodically along the free-end edge. The full-field deformation of the plate presents the characteristics of complex vortex distribution with high and low fluctuations, and exhibits an asymmetric and non-periodic oscillation in the out-of-plane direction. The comparison results reveal how the wind load and material type of the plate affect the oscillation characteristics.

Deformation Measurements

The stereo-digital image correlation technique using two synchronized industrial-grade cameras has been extensively used for full-field 3D shape, displacement and deformation measurements. However, its use in resource-limited institutions and field settings is inhibited by the need for relatively expensive, bulky and complicated experimental set-ups. To mitigate this problem, we established a cost-effective and ultra-portable smartphone-based stereo-digital image correlation system, which only uses a smartphone and an optical attachment. This optical attachment is composed of four planar mirrors and a 3D-printed mirror support, and can split the incoming scene into two sub-images, simulating a stereovision system using two virtual smartphones. Although such a mirror-based system has already been used for stereo-image correlation, this is the first time it has been combined with a commercial smartphone. This publication explores the potential and limitations of such a configuration. We first verified the effectiveness and accuracy of this system in 3D shape and displacement measurement through shape measurement and in-plane and out-of-plane translation tests. Severe thermal-induced virtual strains (up to 15,000 με) were found in the measured results due to the smartphone heating. The mechanism for the generation of the temperature-dependent errors in this system was clearly and reasonably explained. After a simple preheating process, the smartphone-based system was demonstrated to be accurate in measuring the strain on the surface of a loaded composite specimen, with comparable accuracy to a strain gauge. Measurements of 3D deformation are illustrated by tracking the deformation on the surface of a deflating ball. This cost-effective and ultra-portable smartphone-based system not only greatly decreases the hardware investment in the system construction, but also increases convenience and efficiency of 3D deformation measurements, thus demonstrating a large potential in resource-limited and field settings.
