Over the last decade, full field measurement methods have become a very useful tool for experimental mechanics and other technical disciplines. The rapid evolution of digital imaging, that has materialized toward higher quality, more inexpensive digital cameras, and the increase in the available computational power, have made these methods accessible to a broader range of scientific laboratories.Our interest in the continuing development of meshless methods for full field measurements originates from the need to improve, generalize and integrate them into the data-driven composite material characterization methodology via multi-axial mechatronic systems that were developed by the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL). This methodology requires the measurement of both in-plane and out-of-plane strain fields, and therefore such methods are particularly attractive for this purpose. In addition, there is a large variety of applications in the area of experimental mechanics and other technical disciplines where the whole field displacement and strain measurement is very important, and consequently provide a unique opportunity for the usage of the meshless approximation schemes. In engineering applications traditional approximation schemes involve the use of discrete elements corresponding to typical meshes for representing field variable distributions. More specifically, the underlying geometry is subdivided into a number of sub-regions of simple geometry, usually in the shape of a triangle or quadrilateral. The values of the field quantities of interest within these subregions or elements can be calculated based on assumed shape functions of the respective elements.
