Digital Image Correlation Workshop at the University of Manchester, September 2016

<p>Enabling Process Technologies sponsored a Digital Image Correlation (DIC) workshop on 8 September, 2016 at the School of Mechanical, Aerospace and Civil Engineering at the University of Manchester. Alistair Tofts, Director of Sales &amp; Marketing at Correlated Solutions attended and provided a series of presentations covering DIC theory, and the working principles of the VIC lineup of DIC software.</p> <p>Afterwards, three discrete tests were conducted with the same specimen and speckle on three different frames and setups:</p> <ul> <li>High speed: Zwick HTM-5030 test frame, Photron SA.1 high speed cameras</li> <li>Quasi-static 2D: Instron 5969 test frame, Point Grey Research machine vision camera</li> <li>Quasi-static 3D: Instron 5659 test frame, 2 Point Grey Research machine vision cameras</li> </ul> <p>The archives included in this dataset are:</p> <ul> <li>Presentations: contains the slides from the presentations given by Alistair Tofts, as well as an outline/agenda given by Matthew Roy.</li> <li>3D_fast, 2D_slow and 3D_slow: correspond to the tests/setup described above, including all calibration and test images, along with VIC metadata for replaying analyses.</li> </ul> <p>Specimen geometry is shown on slide 6 of ~/Presentation/DICWorkshopPresSept2016_MJR.pptx, and markdown readme files are included to describe the test and data.</p>
