Researchers have developed a new method to combine infrared thermography and digital image correlation for analyzing material properties. This projection-based coupling technique uses the pinhole camera model to accurately map 2D temperature data from infrared thermography onto 3D surface coordinates obtained from digital image correlation, even for non-flat surfaces. The approach augments existing experimental protocols by utilizing independently calibrated systems and can be further enhanced with radial basis functions for detailed spatial and temporal gradient analysis.
