Full field optical measurements for advanced structural dynamics: first outcomes
No full textAbstract. A growing activity of the first author on full-field vibration measurements and
promising analyses on dynamic characterisation of components, on dynamic strain &
stresses and on cumulative damage maps has drawn the attention of a foreign institution
such as Vienna University of Technology up to offer full access to its Schwingungs- und
Strukturanalyse / Optical Vibration Measurement Laboratory, equipped with state-of-the-art
instruments implementing different & complementary approaches, in order to give the
researcher the unique opportunity to extend the stream of researches in the strategic field
of image-based measurement technologies. The early activity carried on in the frame of
the settled Full-Field Optical Measurements for Advanced Structural Dynamics project is
discussed in detail, showing the first achievements
