This article is a personal review of the historical developments of digital image correlation
(DIC) techniques, together with recent important advances and future goals. The historical …

As a carrier of deformation information, the speckle pattern, or more exactly the random
intensity distributions, which could be naturally occurred or artificially fabricated onto test …

To perform digital image correlation (DIC), each image is divided into groups of pixels
known as subsets or interrogation cells. Larger interrogation cells allow greater strain …

High performance composite materials, such as Carbon–Fibre Reinforced Plastic (CFRP)
composites, are being increasingly used in aerospace industry, such as fuselage primary …

The quality of strain measurements by digital image correlation (DIC) strongly depends on
the quality of the pattern on the specimen's surface. An ideal pattern should be highly …

Abstract The Digitial Image Correlation (DIC) method is a non-contact optical technique to
measure the contour deformation, strain and stress values. In order to obtain the stress and …

A vision-based approach has been employed in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of
bridge infrastructure. The approach has many advantages: non-contact, non-destructive …

This study investigated the full-field displacement and strain fields of asphalt concrete under
semi-circular bending (SCB) through the stereo-digital image correlation (stereo-DIC) …

The increasing use of high performance composite materials, such as carbon–fibre
reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites, in commercial and military aerospace applications …

The performance of digital image correlation (DIC) is influenced by the quality of speckle
patterns significantly. Thus, it is crucial to present a valid and practical method to assess the …
