THERMOELASTIC STRESS ANALYSIS BY MEANS OF A STANDARD THERMOCAMERA (original) (raw)

Thermoelastic analysis is a novel full-field technique that leverages standard thermocameras to detect temperature variations induced by dynamic loads. The study presents a methodology that enhances the applicability of thermoelastic stress analysis (TSA) by utilizing a standard thermocamera, overcoming previous limitations of strict experimental conditions. By employing Fourier analysis on thermographic images, it is possible to achieve accurate TSA results while significantly reducing the need for specialized equipment.
