What is GOM Correlate
GOM Correlate is a digital image correlation (DIC) and evaluation software for materials research and component testing.
GOM Software certified by PTB and NIST
In order to ensure precise measurement accuracy, both GOM Correlate Professional and GOM Correlate software have been tested and certified by PTB and NIST institutions. The accuracy of the evaluation software is tested by comparing the results from the software with reference results. The GOM software has been placed in Category 1, the category with the smallest measurement deviations.
What´s new
What´s new in the current version of the GOM Software 2018?
Efficient, Process-Based Python Interpreter
Fast and simplified data access for complex scientific calculations with Python, use of free Python libraries in the GOM software.
Improved Representation of Deviations in the 3D View
Plastic representation of deformations and depressions increases in the 3D image as well as even faster and easier interpretation of the results.
Open Data Exchange
Fast export of elements such as sections, curves and coordinate systems can be done via one or more steps as CSV or XML file.

Sample Data
Data sets as learning and for different applications
Component Analysis
This sample project shows a full-field analysis of a 3D component. The aim of this project is to analyze strain and displacement on the component's surface with the approach of digital image correlation (DIC). Further evaluations with sections and points are also implemented to see local effects.
GOM_Testing_Object_Component.gcorrelate (202 MB)
Motion Analysis
This project is an example for a dynamic motion analysis. It gives an overview of employing point components to analyze relative motion and displacement. Inspections like vector fields, the 6DoF evaluation and relative angle changes are included.
GOM_Testing_Object_Motion_Analysis.gcorrelate (182 MB)
Materials Testing
This sample project shows a full field strain analysis of a flat punched hole specimen under uniaxial loading conditions. It demonstrates very local strain effects around the hole which are analyzed on the full surface of the specimen and displayed by sections.
GOM_Testing_Object_Material.gcorrelate (208 MB)
Static Deformation
This project is a static analysis of an automotive plastic part under different loading conditions. For every loading condition, it shows the direction and magnitude of displacements in 3D space. The measuring data is aligned to a CAD model to use the directions of the coordinate system for inspections.
GOM_Testing_Object_Static_Analysis.gcorrelate (711 MB)
FEM Comparison
This example shows a typical real load case by means of a 3D part. The software is able to perform a full-field analysis even of very small deformations, which forms the basis for dimension checks. The visualization of the strain distribution allows evaluating local effects. The measured values serve for a full-field and quantitative comparison against FE simulation data.
