This paper is devoted to the evaluation of composite materials and components using ultrasonic visualization of structural changes caused by the external force. It is proposed to measure the strain of a sample under load using digital correlation of images recorded by a scanning acoustic microscope. An algorithm for processing the spatio-temporal ultrasonic data is developed to measure the longitudinal and transverse strains versus the applied force. The four-layer carbon fiber-reinforced composites with alternating packing of fibers (90/45) are evaluated by the proposed method. The relationships between the strains and the applied force are obtained up to the destruction of the sample. It is shown that the maximal longitudinal and transverse strains achieved for the test sample are 1.2% and 0.3%, respectively.
