Quantitative measurement of micro-deformation of electropolished carbon steel using an image processing technique

摘要

An automatic technique for the quantitative measurement of micro-surface deformation of a specimen using image-processing is introduced. Static tensile and torsional tests of two kinds of electropolished carbon steels are carried out. One has a banded structure and another has not. The banded structure gives a great influence on the micro-deformation depending on the type of loads. The characteristics of micro-deformations under these static loads are made clear from the results obtained by the image-processing technique. [References: 4]
