Digital Volume Correlation

Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a technique used to measure how a 3D object deforms under stress or load. It works by taking detailed 3D images of the object before and after deformation, then using computer algorithms to find corresponding points in both images. By analyzing the shifts between these points, DVC can determine the internal displacement and strain within the material. This method is valuable in fields like material science, engineering, and biomechanics, providing insights into how structures or tissues behave under different conditions without causing damage.
