Abstract

An algorithm for estimating the strains in solids at the mesoscale level, which is based on constructing fields of displacement vectors and calculating strain components, is studied and tested. Verification of the method is performed by comparing the analytically calculated strain components with experimental data obtained on the basis of model images and images recorded by a TOMSC optical TV measurement system during tension of polymer samples. The estimates of the strain components obtained by a correlation analysis of images are shown to be in good agreement with the results of analytical calculations for known loading parameters and sizes of the images under analysis. The results of the study confirm that the TOMSC system can be used to estimate local strains by processing images of the surface of loaded samples of materials.
