Abstract
When performing a digital image correlation (DIC) measurement, multi-camera stereo-DIC is generally preferred over single-camera 2D-DIC. Unlike 2D-DIC, stereo-DIC is able to minimise the in-plane strain error that results from out-of-plane motion. This makes 2D-DIC a less viable alternative for strain measurements than stereo-DIC, despite being less financially and computationally expensive. This work, therefore, proposes a strain-gauge-based method for the compensation of errors from out-of-plane motion in 2D-DIC strain measurements on planar specimens. The method was first developed using equations for the theoretical strain error from out-of-plane motions in 2D-DIC and was then applied experimentally in tensile tests to two different dog-bone specimen geometries. The compensation method resulted in a clear reduction in the strain error in 2D-DIC. The strain-gauge-based method thus improves the accuracy of a 2D-DIC measurement, making it a more viable option for performing full-field strain measurements and providing a possible alternative in cases where stereo-DIC is not practical or is unavailable.
