Abstract

Digital image correlation has emerged as a popular method for the dynamic performance measurement of metallic and polymer sheets, owing to the benefits of being a noncontact, full-field, and high-precision method. Two or more high-speed cameras are required for full-field vibration measurements with three-dimensional digital image correlation, which is generally costly. Perpendicular view to the specimen surface is conventional in two-dimensional digital image correlation, and the out-of-plane displacement is regarded as a part of systematic errors. In this study, a single view method was implemented with no complex optical settings. The full-field vibration displacement of the metal sheet was measured with projection components, and the first four orders of displacement modes were identified. Finite element analysis and traditional experimental modal analysis were then implemented to validate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed approach. The results show that the dynamic parameters, including the natural frequencies and mode shapes, were well consistent. Meanwhile, there is a significant difference in the length of mode shape vectors. The number of measurement points in the proposed method is 2016, which is far more than the number of measurement points in the traditional experimental modal analysis. This would be convenient and beneficial for damage identification towards thin-wall parts including turbine blade with the continuum hypothesis of mode shapes and a single-camera DIC system. It is worth noting that this is effective with conditions of small deformation vibration and no rigid-body rotation.

Highlights

  • In the past decade, the digital image correlation (DIC) method was widely studied and employed for deformation, shape, and motion measurements in various applications [1,2,3,4]. e field of mechanical performance testing of new materials and structures is revolutionary, such as additive manufacturing (AM) alloys [5], shape memory alloys (SMA) [6], and carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP) [7]

  • With the development of high-speed camera performance, such as achieving maximum frame rates at full resolution, an increasing number of structural dynamic characteristics can be measured through the high-speed digital image correlation (HS-DIC) method [11, 12]. e dynamic performance measurement of metallic and polymer sheets is increased by the benefits of being a noncontact, full-field, and highprecision method [13,14,15]

  • The cost of a high-speed camera is usually in excess of $10 000, and this measurement often requires two or more cameras to capture the full-field vibration measurement through the stereo-vision method. Such a high price is close to the laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV) system. e DIC and LDV methods both have their own strengths in full-field vibration measurement [19, 20]. e essential difference between the two methods is that DIC adopts the timefrozen method and records a frame containing full-field displacement information for each sample, while LDV is generally limited to the velocity of a single point in each sample [21]
