Abstract
In the present work a state of deformation has been analyzed using a Digital Fourier Transform Holography method. A simple shear test using single lap joint specimen was performed. The material tested was polydimethylsiloxane, which is a rubber-like material characterized by large deformations. The displacement of the single lap joint was estimated by means of the digital holography and was associated to polymer deformation. Some classical constitutive models available in the literature were used to evaluate important material parameters. The results indicate that the proposed approach is an alternative procedure for applications related to experimental mechanics, which provide full-field and noncontact measurements.
