Towards a better understanding of mechanicals tests thanks to DIC, with ALSTOM and CETIM
Consistency of simulation and test data The consistency of test data and numerical results is paramount while carrying out the simulation-experiment comparison required to validate numerical simulations. First of all, mechanical tests need to respect the specifications laid out during their design: sample geometry, load path, location and orientation of the loading point, measurement points…
Digital image correlation: The contribution of the global method
Why a “global” method? Digital image correlation consists in measuring a displacement field between a reference configuration and a deformed configuration. There are two large families of algorithms to make this measurement: In the general case, the displacement field u(x) can be decomposed as a sum of functions of form Nm : where vα,m are…
