Through in-situ experiments, microstructural processes within the material, e.g. during deformation or a large change in temperature, can be analyzed. With the aid of a miniature tensile-compression module, samples can be subjected to a mechanical load, e.g. under the scanning electron microscope or the X-ray diffractometer, and also cooled or heated. By this, phase transformations can be observed and quantified, or strain locations can be identified from the resulting images by means of digital image correlation (DIC).
