Application of T-PT in resolving non-affine shear deformations in the rheology of soft materials. (a) Schematic of the analytically prescribed affine and non-affine displacement fields as seen in many soft materials55. (b) Contour plot of the displacement magnitude recovered by T-PT from the synthetic images. (c) Histogram of the applied and recovered non-affine displacement component of the prescribed motion field in a. (d) Example comparison of the non-affine displacement component recovered by T-PT against the prescribed non-affine displacement applied to the particles in the synthetic images. The arrows in the figure indicate the direction and relative magnitude of the 3D displacement projected on the x-y plane.
