TL;DR: In this paper, two different types of cameras are used to monitor the response of a bridge to a train pass-by, and the acquired images are analyzed using three different image processing techniques (Pattern Matching, Edge Detection and Digital Image Correlation) and the results are compared with a reference measurement, obtained by a laser interferometer providing single point measurements.

TL;DR: In this article, acoustic emission was used to monitor the cracking mechanisms leading to the failure of scaled concrete beams having Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) longitudinal reinforcement and no shear reinforcement.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of pre-processing image blurring on the uncertainty of two-dimensional digital image correlation (DIC) measurements for the specific case of numerically-designed speckle patterns having particles with well-defined and consistent shape, size and spacing was discussed.

TL;DR: A systematic uncertainty assessment of DIC method in general dynamic applications and results show good agreement between the experiments and the simulations, proving the introduced technique to be an effective method for motion induced uncertainty estimation.

TL;DR: This work aims to evaluate and improve DIC uncertainty in dynamic conditions in the case of translating target, and proposes a numerical technique to improve the performances of DIC in dynamic applications.
