Aerospace

XTOP3D's 3D digital image correlation (DIC) technology is used in the aerospace field for 3D full-field displacement and deformation measurement. It provides non-contact DIC measurement solutions for processes such as aircraft wing dynamic deformation measurement, wind tunnel dynamic testing, high-temperature material testing, component dynamic deformation, and vibration/collision/fatigue failure analysis.

  • The XTDIC-STROBE three-dimensional dynamic measurement system, based on dynamic trajectory tracking of landmark points, can analyze in real time the vibration and deformation caused by wind force during wind tunnel tests, and specifically calculate parameters such as the wing's attitude angle and rotational acceleration under a specific speed wind tunnel model.

  • Three-dimensional digital image correlation (3D-DIC), based on two key technologies: large-angle weak-correlation speckle matching method and camera dynamic correction method, can be used to measure the deformation and attitude of wings in wind tunnel models, as well as detect large deflection of wings during flight.

  • Application Cases
    • Application of DIC technology in dynamic deformation measurement of large aircraft wings
      Based on simulation verification of a 1:10 scale wing test bench, the Xintuo 3D XTDIC-STROBE 3D dynamic measurement system was used for synchronous measurement and accuracy comparison. It was verified that the full-field measurement accuracy of the aircraft wing dynamic deformation reached 0.21mm/2m, which meets the requirements for wing deflection monitoring under flight loads, and provides a high-precision full-field dynamic deformation measurement solution for aircraft aeroelastic analysis.
    • XTOP3D DIC three-dimensional dynamic measurement system for aircraft space attitude measurement
      In modern aircraft performance testing, the motion analysis of aircraft and their structural components is often based on theoretical simulations or wind tunnel experiments. Using the Xintuo 3D DIC high-speed measurement system combined with a high-speed camera, we can measure the trajectory, attitude, displacement, and deformation of aircraft structural components and onboard objects while in flight.
    • 3D strain measurement of materials at ultra-high temperatures of 2000 degrees
      The XTOP3D XTDIC three-dimensional full-field strain measurement system, based on digital image correlation (DIC) technology, can simultaneously measure the morphology, deformation, and strain of materials in high-temperature environments. It can detect surface shape changes caused by high temperatures, reveal the material failure process, and quantitatively determine the critical temperature and strain range for failure.
