Abstract
A new experimental device used for optical investigations of transient elastohydrodynamic behaviour of connecting-rod big end bearing models is presented. Photoelasticity method and digital image correlation method are used in order to visualise isochromatic fringe patterns and, respectively, displacement field. Validation of recording methods in dynamic regime are made. An isochromatic fringe pattern of the whole bearing is reconstructed using images taken for different regions of the model. An example of displacement visualisation of the interface cap/body of the bearing is presented
