Validation of the inflation cylinder.
Comparison between Digital Image Correlation (DIC) results for a 500 μm thick membrane loaded with 220 mbar pressure and the corresponding Finite Element Model (FEM). Top: Z displacement. The max displacement given by the DIC measurement is 0.615 mm; the predicted FE displacement is 0.614 mm. Bottom: Strain. The apex strain given by the DIC measurement is 7.7%; the predicted FE maximum strain is 8.4%.
