Abstract: | This paper is concerned with small strain measurement utilizing the numerical processing of digital images. The proposed method
has its theoretical basis in digital signal analysis and, from a methodological point of view, it can be considered as an
extension to digital images of the wellknown white light speckle photography technique. That conventional method is based
on the analysis of photographic plates that are exposed twice (before and after the specimen deformation) with the image of
a random speckle pattern that has been previously printed on the test piece surface. The digital speckle correlation advantages
consist of requiring a very simple specimen preparation and, mainly, of allowing the strain field computation just by numerical
elaboration of the acquired images.
In this paper, the theoretical basis of the technique and some valuable improvements to the known analogous methodologies
are presented. Finally, test results for an application of digital speckle correlation are shown and advantages and disadvantages
of the technique are elaborated. In addition, further developments in this area are discussed. |
