STRAIN DISTRIBUTION ON A CURVED BEAM: DIC VS. FEM KEYWORDS TEST SET-UP OUTPUT WHY CHOOSE X-SIGHT? TOOLS, POSTPROCESSING AND RESULTS The DIC Area tool was used at the location with the highest bending moment to capture the full-field axial strain distribution. In addition, a FEM calculation was performed with boundary conditions that faithfully represent the […]

STRAIN CONCENTRATION ON A NOTCHED SAMPLE: DIC VS. FEM KEYWORDS TEST SET-UP OUTPUT WHY CHOOSE X-SIGHT? TOOLS, POSTPROCESSING AND RESULTS The DIC area tool was used in the area surrounding the notch, where the strain field deviates from the homogeneous strain in the rest of the sample. The full-field axial strain distribution was captured. Additionally,
