Abstract
Stereo‐digital image correlation (SDIC) is used for the analysis and quantification of parasite bending stresses in a fatigue specimen due to its mounting in a misaligned load frame. The aim of this work is to provide an easy way to estimate the induced parasite bending stresses due to the load frame misalignment, using the out‐of‐plane displacement measurements obtained by SDIC and beam theory. Analytical solutions of parasite stresses as a function of out‐of‐plane misalignments are provided for flat fatigue specimens having (a) tangentially blending fillets between the uniform test section and the ends and (b) continuous radius between the ends. Simple procedures for aligning a commercial load frame in accordance with international standards are also provided. The bending stresses profile along the specimen main axis obtained by numerical simulations have shown a very good agreement with the results obtained by the analytical models. The proposed methodology could complement standard alignment techniques based on samples instrumented with strain gauges or, in their absence, even replace established procedures.
期刊介绍:
Strain is an international journal that contains contributions from leading-edge research on the measurement of the mechanical behaviour of structures and systems. Strain only accepts contributions with sufficient novelty in the design, implementation, and/or validation of experimental methodologies to characterize materials, structures, and systems; i.e. contributions that are limited to the application of established methodologies are outside of the scope of the journal. The journal includes papers from all engineering disciplines that deal with material behaviour and degradation under load, structural design and measurement techniques. Although the thrust of the journal is experimental, numerical simulations and validation are included in the coverage.
Strain welcomes papers that deal with novel work in the following areas:
experimental techniques
non-destructive evaluation techniques
numerical analysis, simulation and validation
residual stress measurement techniques
design of composite structures and components
impact behaviour of materials and structures
signal and image processing
transducer and sensor design
structural health monitoring
biomechanics
extreme environment
micro- and nano-scale testing method.
