Abstract
This research examines the applicability of the planned Digital Image Correlation (DIC) system to measure the strains in tensile experiments. DIC is a low-cost optical technique, and is an appropriate measurement used to measure surface displacement, strain and stress map distribution without any contact with the tested surfaces. In the present research, the tensile test is conducted on two different flat samples, which are painted in a speckle pattern on the tested surface to use DIC features in stain measurements. To guarantee the efficiency of the planned DIC system, the DIC code has been built using MATLAB programming language. The obtained results from DIC technique is compared with the results from open-source software (Ncorr), the finite element analysis (ANSYS) as well as the exact and analytical solutions. The comparison results showed that there was A quite acceptable and agreement achieved between them. According to the exact solution, The percentage of accuracy of the obtained results for the Aluminum without hole plate was around (89-93) % whereas the accuracy with the NCORR was about 96 %. For the second copper plate with a central hole, the accuracy has been obtained to be (80.7-99) % with the analytical solution wherein its value has reached (81-97) % with Ncorr software.
