Abstract

This chapter is devoted to the evaluation of damage with digital image correlation (DIC). This measurement technique provides displacement fields that can be used to tune material parameters of damage models. The potential of DIC for identification purposes is illustrated hereafter for simple 1D-type geometries in the context of quasi-brittle and ductile behaviors. Beams and frames as encountered in civil engineering application can be described through damage laws. The localization of damage at single points (lumped damage mechanics) and the resulting damage law can be determined very precisely based on dedicated versions of DIC incorporating the descriptive language of beam theory. At smaller scale, plasterboards (plaster core lined with paper) constitute another example of a structure (rather than a material), which can be described as damageable. Those cases will be analyzed in details.
