Abstract
Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is an important and widely used non-contact technique for measuring material deformation. Considerable progress has been made in recent decades in both developing new experimental DIC techniques and in enhancing the performance of the relevant computational algorithms. Despite this progress, there is a distinct lack of a freely available, high-quality, flexible DIC software. This paper documents a new DIC software package Ncorr that is meant to fill that crucial gap. Ncorr is an open-source subset-based 2D DIC package that amalgamates modern DIC algorithms proposed in the literature with additional enhancements. Several applications of Ncorr that both validate it and showcase its capabilities are discussed.

Digital Imaging Techniques In Experimental Stress Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface displacement components in laser speckle metrology were measured using a digital image scanner interfaced to a computer. Butt et al. used a boundary integral equation method to calculate surface traction in the contour.
