Abstract:The present paper analyses the possibility of using the digital image correlation technique to study the mechanical behavior of small scale components. A microscope is supplemented to the equipment for magnification, together with a miniature tensile testing machine. Several samples with already studied stress concentrators were analyzed. For comparison purposes, a finite element model of the geometry, with appropriate loading conditions, is created and the strain field is compared, in orderv to be validated t… Show more
