- Description
- Sources Sought Notice Details This Notice is for planning purposes only and is not a Request for Proposal, Request for Quotation, or an obligation on the part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for conducting a follow-on acquisition. NIST does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this Notice, or otherwise pay for the information requested. No entitlement or payment of direct or indirect costs or charges by NIST will arise as a result of submission of responses to this Notice and NIST use of such information. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking to identify sources capable of providing a digital image correlation system at the NIST Engineering Laboratory. Background Information: The NIST Polymeric Materials Group in the Materials and Structural Systems Division is conducting mechanical tests using various polymeric materials. This work involves deforming materials using mechanical testing frames and recording deformations. A typical definition for material deformation is the strains (both elastic and plastic strains) of the material surface in all directions, which are indexed to the evolution of other key responses (for example, the applied load). The surfaces of the test pieces are not perfectly planer and will tend to move in space during the mechanical testing. Digital image correlation (DIC) is frequently used in measuring the surface strain fields (in the combined elastic and plastic strain range). Three-dimensional (3D) DIC is required to accurately measure the 3D shape and motion of the test piece relative to the camera positions. The system will also have to acquire a number of analog signals from the testing frame or other electronics to synchronize the strain measurements with the other key control and output signals.
