Both the chairs of PhotoMechanics and the International DIC Society are glad to welcome you to Clermont-Ferrand (France) in October 2024 for a joint conference between PhotoMechanics and iDICs!
This joint conference will focus on full-field measurement techniques and their applications in experimental solid mechanics.

Aim and Scope
Classic procedures used in experimental solid mechanics have been significantly modified by recent advances in optical measurement methods, image processing and infrared thermography. These full-field measurement techniques lead to high-resolution displacement, strain and temperature maps, which open new and attractive fields of investigation. The purpose of the PM-iDICs 2024 conference is to provide an international forum for academics and practitioners to promote the new possibilities offered by these techniques and to discuss their impact on the mechanical characterization of materials and structures.
Conference themes
Conference format
A book of abstracts will be available for the conference. The aim is to keep the meeting as informal as possible, and no paper proceedings will be published. The scientific committee will propose a selection of papers for publication in a special issue of Strain, the International Journal for Strain Measurement published by Wiley. Selected papers will be collected during the conference.
