ABSTRACT:
A sample (16) with a cut (18) is mounted by clamps (14) between a stationary bar (10) and a movable bar (12). A motor driven cam (22) reciprocates the movable bar causing the samples to undergo cyclic deformation. A camera (C) is selectively positionable (B) to view each of the plurality of samples. A computer control (D) determines a cut length (60, 62, 64, 66) from each two dimensional electronic video image representation and stores it in a cut data memory (68). The next sampling time for each sample is calculated (72) generally in proportion to an inverse of the cut growth rate. The sampling order is re-ordered after each measurement and stored in a queuing table (78). A driver circuit (86) causes a motor (40) to position the camera in the appropriate positions to image the samples in the order indicated by the queuing table.
