Abstract

A three dimensional analysis of a drying test on a concrete-like material is presented. The analysis combines different tools, namely, X-ray microtomography of an ex situ experiment, image acquisition and processing, volume correlation to measure three dimensional displacement fields. It allowsinparticularmesoscopicstrainanalysestobeperformed. Bystudyingthecorrelationresiduals, it is also possible to study the damage mechanisms.
