Examples of the utility of this approach are demonstrated using a spherical rubber ball.     

Characterisation of Thermal Expansion Coefficient of Anisotropic Materials by Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry

Abstract:  Carbon fibre composites find wide applications in aerospace, sporting goods industry and biomedicine. Mechanical and thermal properties of such materials are highly anisotropic; therefore, adequate experimental measuring methods are requested to determine them. This paper describes the application of electronic speckle pattern interferometry to full-field, real-time characterisation of the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of anisotropic materials. The topics such as correlation fringes tilt and influence of small rigid body rotation were theoretically described and experimentally verified. A series of measurements was carried out to determine the CTE tensor for unidirectional and bi-directional carbon fibre laminates and to prove the feasibility of the method. The measuring set-up developed includes a temperature control unit for cooling and heating and a one-dimensional in-plane speckle interferometer.

Recording of In-plane Surface Displacement by Double-exposure Speckle Photography

Local displacements in the plane of an object surface illuminated by coherent light may be measured by recording double-exposure photographs of it. When the surface is illuminated symmetrically by two oblique beams, ‘speckle correlation fringes’ appear in the doubly exposed negative, due to the non-linear nature of the photographic recording. Factors affecting the visibility of these fringes and the range of displacement which can be measured are discussed. The fringe visibility falls to zero for displacements larger than a speckle width, but measurements can then be performed upon the optical transform of the negative image. With uni-directional object illumination, the in-plane displacement can be measured on a point-by-point basis in magnitude and in direction from Young's fringes observed. With two symmetrical oblique illuminating beams the effect of a small surface strain is displayed, even if large lateral displacement has occurred, by using spatial filtering when viewing the photographic image.     

Speckle Photography Applied to the Measurement of in-plane Rotation

Speckle photography provides a simple, non-contact method of measuring in-plane displacements. By using the technique to measure the displacement at two points on an object which is being rotated about an axis parallel to the line of sight, the amount of rotation can be calculated without the need to identify the actual axis of rotation.     

Pulsed TV Holography Combined with Digital Speckle Photography Restores Lost Interference Phase

The measuring of situations with optical measuring methods is difficult when a deformation field must be determined while it is superposed to comparatively large rotating or translating object motion. Interferometric methods such as pulsed TV holography might be suitable to measure the small transient deformation, but the often-large bulk motion makes the phase information disappear. However, by a combination of digital speckle photography (DSP) (also called digital image correlation) with pulsed TV holography, such measuring problems can be mastered. A method to calculate the bulk in-plane motion by DSP from the usual pulsed TV holography recordings and then to use this information to restore the interference phase is proposed. This technique may be attractive in the study of transient vibrations overlaid on rotating or translating motions.     

The Extension of the Electronic Speckle Photography to the Measurement of In-Plane Displacement

In this paper, a modified speckle photography technique is demonstrated for the measurement of a variable range of the in-plane displacement. The modification focuses on coupling the diode pump solid state laser DPSS with the conventional speckle photography technique. The DPSS laser emerges different wavelengths to provide speckle patterns of suitable size to measure the desired range of the in-plane displacement. The second harmonic generation in a nonlinear crystal of wavelength 532 nm and the principle diode laser wavelength 808 nm are employed in identifying the object positions within a lateral displacement made by a standard linear stage in the range from few microns up to 1.2 mm. The sensitivity and the correlation of the speckles formed by both wavelengths suit both small and large movements. A continues measurement by the modified technique can be achieved by identifying a scale factor in the uniform area in which both wavelengths are effective, and high correlation between the results obtained by 532 and 808 nm is maintained. The uncertainty in measuring 1.2 mm lateral movement by the modified speckle photography is found to be 26.8 μm.
