    Abstract

    In material engineering, it is widely recognized that deformation and fracture (D/F) characteristics are important because the safety of developed materials can be determined on the basis of D/F characteristics. The D/F characteristic is defined as the load required to break the material and the strain caused by applying a particular load. To observe the effect of grain boundary slip at the micron level, we have proposed a method of obtaining displacement vectors of internal structures from submicron 3D CT images. In this paper, we introduce an improved method for accurately acquiring D/F characteristics. The results of a simulation and a real test confirm the effectiveness of the improved method.
