<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-US
style='mso-ansi-language:EN-US'>Measuring strain in samples which are too
small, big, compliant, soft or hot are typical scenarios where non-contact
techniques are needed. A technique which can cover all that and also can deal
with complicated strain fields in structures or structural materials is the
Digital Image Correlation. With this technique, strain can be calculated from a
series of consecutive images with sub pixel resolution as will be shown in the
following chapters. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-US
style='mso-ansi-language:EN-US'><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-US
style='mso-ansi-language:EN-US'>Even though there are tons of codes from the
image registration, artificial intelligence or the robotics community, none of
them can easily be used by the strain measuring community. Commercial code is
available also and has the advantage of getting a guaranty that it works, is nicely
designed and has well thought through user interfaces and typically a higher
processing speed. The disadvantages are, that commercial software typically has
to be paid in k$, is available only as package with hardware, enjoys a
notorious lack of programming interfaces or tools to change the code to fit it
into a test setup as well as the probability of inaccessible data in case the
software license is not valid anymore or it does not run on the new and fancy
computer anymore. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-US
style='mso-ansi-language:EN-US'><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-US
style='mso-ansi-language:EN-US'>Out of all these reasons this code was started together
with Rob Thompson and Dan Gianola during my stay in the group of Kevin J.

Considerable extensions and new code as well as all the multi core stuff was
added while Chris was heading a group (‘microreliability’) at the KIT.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-US
style='mso-ansi-language:EN-US'>This code is not meant to be a direct competitor
to commercial code since we have not the time to make it as easy to use as
possible but as a different option with the advantages to be ‘free’, ‘flexible’
and ‘scalable’. ‘Free’ in terms of free access even though we would like to ask
you to cite our code in case you use it and ‘free’ again even though you need
to buy matlab together with some toolboxes. Since most research institutions
have access to this important tool I think we still can name it ‘free’.
‘Flexible’ in terms of the relative easy way you can enhance this matlab code
as a script language where you can add either other toolboxes or your own code
to flex it around your application. We would appreciate it if you as a user
could share your own code with all of us out here so we can learn from your
creativity. And ‘scalable’ since you can easily start several sessions to
process your images on more than one processor (core) and the newest code
segments are already ready to use multicores and because you can also use
Graphic Processing Units (GPU = the graphics processor on a graphics card, http://dside.dyndns.org/dict
) or other add-on boards to enhance processing speed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

is the horizontal direction in the image and the y-direction the perpendicular

format and the naming of your files. The preferred image format is *.tif and
can be compressed with the packbits compression. JPEG or other image formats as
well as MPEG video compression formats will not provide you with sub pixel
resolution since the images are processed to save as much space as possible.
The script we use to create a list of images to process (filelist_generator.m)
is kind of limited to a certain format but it is possible to generate your own
list of images which will be explained later. If you want to change the format
or the names of your images you can use free programs like Irfanview (<a

not work at all, the function will crash. To prevent this I let the function
decide very early which peak is good or bad. Only the fits with a low residual
will be used. Therefore you should make sure you do not use too high values
here. You will also find a similar value in the function ‘sortvalidpoints.m’
which is called by ‘peak_labelling.m’ at the end of the processing to create
‘validx’ and ‘validy’. You have to change this value in line 39 too, otherwise
the peaks will be deleted at the end. Since the input file fitxy.dat is saved
before these points are deleted, you can still play around with this value and
see how it affects your resulting validx and validy.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

around the peaks you want to track. For each peak you have to define a box by
clicking on the lower left and the upper right of each peak. The center of each
box will be highlighted by a blue circle. It is very important that you choose
a box which is wide enough for the curve fitting to get enough data points. But
if you choose too big boxes you will trap several peaks in them and the residual
of the fit will be high which the software will interpret as bad fit. A box
size of 2-4 times of the visible peaks seems to be a good idea. Also it is
better to choose round shaped peaks since this provides a better greyscale
profile if you choose to use a gauss function for the fitting process. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

integration width (in vertical, y-direct) you want to use. Default is 40 but
you should keep in mind that it should be either much wider or much narrower
than your markers. If you choose the same width and the markers are drifting in

the second peak. After the second click, the function will fit two gauss
functions to the greyscale profile and plot a red fitting function on top of
the data while processing all images. The peak positions will be saved in the
file ‘raw_peak_results.dat’ and the strain as strain_x.dat as well as a two

second column. All files are tab delimited ASCII format and can be opened e.g.
with excel. You cannot use ‘displacement.m’ for the strain analysis since this
