Application of DIC to static and dynamic testing of agglomerated cork material
In this work, experimental compression tests have been performed on parallelepiped specimens cut from an agglomerated cork
slab. The tests have been performed both using a quasi-static testing machine and a polymeric Split Hopkinson Bar, in order to
assess the sensitivity of the material to the strain rate. A standard and a high-speed digital camera have been used to collect frames
of the samples during the tests. 2D DIC analyses have been conducted on the pictures of lateral faces of the specimens in order to
