Abstract:
Objective To explore the mechanical testing technique suitable for biological materials under water environment. Methods Based on digital image correlation (DIC) method, the unique lens sleeves which can avoid the distortion caused by underwater photography was designed, and this technique was applied to determining mechanical properties of the fish scales. Results The experiment on translation of the water sink indicated that the use of the designed lens sleeves could effectively reduce errors for underwater measurement with high precision; the mechanical testing on fish scales showed that different regions of the fish scales had obviously different mechanical properties, but the differences induced by regions of the dehydrated fish scales were significantly reduced. Conclusions The designed lens sleeves in this study can be applied to image acquisition effectively, and determination of mechanical properties of the biological materials under water environment was achieved using DIC method.
