The current work focuses on the particular case of dissimilar 6082 Al alloy/pure copper butt-friction stirred joints. It takes advantage of voluntarily non optimized welding conditions in order to test the potential of an original approach of identification of the welding defects by means of a single tensile test. The sequence and mechanism of the fracture events arise from their localization on the fracture surfaces thanks to strain maps obtained by digital image correlation. This technique of flaws identification is proved to be particularly efficient at least with the present highly damaged welds.

The effect of the mechanical heterogeneity on the global and local tensile properties of laser-arc hybrid welded joints in industrial pure aluminum has been investigated. Digital image correlation method has been used during tensile test for mapping the strain distribution and to determine the local stress-strain curves of FZ and HAZ. The tensile properties of the various regions are very heterogeneous and HAZ is the weakest region because of the strain localizes during tensile test. Finite element technique was used to model the global response of welded joint based on local constitutive properties which could be determined from DIC results.

This paper presents a coupled experimental/numerical procedure to evaluate triaxiality fields. Such a type of analysis is applied to a tensile test on a thin notched sample made of Ti 6-4 alloy. The experimental data consist of digital images and corresponding load levels, and a commercial code (abaqus) is used in an integrated approach to digital image correlation (DIC). With the proposed procedure, samples with complex shapes can be analyzed independently without having to resort to other tests to calibrate the material parameters of a given constitutive law to evaluate triaxilities. The regularization involved in the integrated DIC (I-DIC) procedure allows the user to deal with experimental imperfections such as cracking of the paint and/or poor quality of the speckle pattern. For the studied material, different hardening postulates are tested up to a level of equivalent plastic strain about three times higher than those achievable in a tensile test on smooth samples. Different finite element (FE) discretizations and model hypotheses (i.e., 2D plane stress and 3D simulations) are compared.

Abstract The quality of wood composites is dependent on the bondlines’ performance and their moisture resistance. The effect of moisture intrusion into bondlines is the focus of this study. The strain profile in the bondline during loading was investigated and the effects of weathering on the bondline were quantified by digital image correlation (DIC), while load deflection data were collected from lap-shear tests (LShTs). A total of 75 LShTs were evaluated including four different adhesive types with Douglas-fir wood, out of which 39 served as controls and 36 as substrates for weathering. The effect of weathering on failure load was not statistically significant. Only the bonded surface and adhesive type have significant effects on failure load, as well as the three-way interaction between the bonded surface, adhesive, and weathering, as revealed by three-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The average effective shear moduli for the weathered samples were significantly lower than those for the control samples.
