Abstract

In the field of structural health monitoring, the use of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) on relevant surfaces offers remarkable advantages. Such a method is presented herein. The statistically stationary nature of usual loads makes it possible to determine, by training with DIC, a reduced kinematic basis (composed of “modes”) and a statistical amplitude distribution for each mode. Further, a specific DIC technique is proposed to deal with such particular kinematics by introducing an extractor per mode that operates on images after a filtering step. This per-mode DIC measurement reduces to a simple scalar product between the image and the corresponding extractor, which allows for very fast and non-iterative processing. As an illustration, this methodology is deployed on a test case of fatigue crack propagation.
