Abstract

Potential contributions of 3D-Digital Image Correlation are investigated to understand the dilatant behaviour of a refractory concrete during high-temperature creep experiments. An experimental analysis of high-temperature image quality is performed. The measurement uncertainty is assessed and compared to the sensitivity of computed kinematic fields to the parameters of the Drucker-Prager model that control the dilatancy. Promising results are found i) concerning deflection and neutral axis location measurement in bending creep tests and ii) contactless measurement of axial strain in compression creep tests, iii) to support the assumption of dilatant behaviour from bending and diametral compression tests and iv) to provide data for a rough parameter identification from compression creep tests.
