Notice Title

Digital Image Correlation System

Notice Description

This measurement system is to support experimental measurements of dynamic pipe cracking. The DIC system will need to be capable of operating at a remote distance from the pipe test piece. It is expected that the measurement equipment will be between 1.0 and 2.0 m from the test piece. The pipe test pieces will be manufactured from a range of common pipe materials, e.g. various plastics and cast iron. It will be possible to paint a speckle pattern on all these materials. The diameters will range from 50 to 300 mm. The size of the cracks and defects will range from the sub-millimetre to the tens of millimetres in size.
