EikoTwin DIC
EikoTwin DIC is an image processing software dedicated to the link between measurements and numerical simulations.
It uses a patented measurement technology to provide automatic test-simulation comparison. It allows the determination of model errors and the identification of error sources
Principle
- Image processing (digital image correlation) based on the finite element mesh.
- Automatic calibration around the mesh.
- Multi-view (no technical limit to the number of cameras).
Features
- Many directly accessible fields: displacements, strains, residual (at pixel scale) on the surface of the part.
- Export of figures that can be used directly in your presentation.
Results
- Virtual sensors (displacement, strain gauges).
- Immediate test/simulation comparison based on finite element simulation results.
"Thermal" plug-in
- This add-on to EikoTwin DIC bridges the gap between kinematic measurements and infrared thermography.
- Import infrared images directly into your digital model
- Correlate the results with your thermomechanical simulation.
"Batch mode" plug-in
- This tool multiplies the power of EikoTwin DIC by allowing batch processing of image series.
- Process all your measurements in a batch process and increase the value you get from EikoTwin DIC.

EikoTwin DIC and the measurement of small strains
Innovation in the automotive industry Innovation is at the heart of the automotive industry: autonomous vehicles, shared mobility, advanced equipment, etc. In order to reinvent themselves and remain competitive, it is necessary for automotive industries to innovate and develop new technologies. It is therefore essential for these companies to perform realistic simulations. The objective is…
The Batch mode: a new EikoTwin DIC plugin
In order to continuously improve the features offered by EikoTwin DIC software, EikoSim has developed a new optional plugin: the Batch mode. It enables to launch, through a configuration file prepared beforehand, the pre-calibration, calibration and displacement measurement for several EikoTwin DIC projects in EKT format. This partial automation of the data processing ensures significant…

Technical functionality: selection of the measurement mesh
On EikoTwin DIC, the measurements are directly expressed on the simulation mesh. In order to choose which areas of interest for the test are visible to the camera(s), the so-called measurement mesh must first be selected. Indeed, this mesh will be the one where the results will be calculated. It is therefore essential to select…
Simulation validation with EikoTwin DIC
Simulation validation with EikoTwin DIC rely heavily on image processing. Image analysis methods provide full-field test data, that can be used to validate and improve your simulation. Using the unique method of “Model-Based testing”, EikoTwin DIC allows to measure displacements and strains of the observed parts directly on the simulation mesh. Thus, you will be…
