Abstract
The presented research aims at measuring the volume changes of elastomers using digital image correlation (DIC) in the 3D configuration (stereo DIC). The deformation measurement method in stereo configuration was applied during the mechanical testing of two types of test specimens (dumbbells, cylinders) in uniaxial tension. In this configuration, two cameras were used. The test specimens were measured up to a specified strain value, and the measured data were used to obtain the strain dependence of Poisson’s ratio and the bulk modulus, which are crucial for hyperelastic models. The measurement results reveal that the stereo DIC method provides relatively less scattered data in the low-strain regions for dumbbell-shaped test specimens and is suitable for measuring various test specimen shapes.
