A new formula for fringe localization in holographic interferometry

Holographic interferometry generally involves the interference of two or more speckle fields reflected from or transmitted through a diffused object. The visibility of the resulting fringes depends on the degree of coherence of the interfering speckle fields. Through a statistical analysis it is found that the degree of coherence of speckle fields is essentially a function of the relative speckle displacement and average speckle size. The analysis leads to a new physical model for holographic interferometry. With this model the problem of fringe formation and localization may be analyzed and formulated in terms of speckle movement. A new formula for ideal fringe localization is then derived from the analysis. Furthermore, a localization factor V_c, i.e. the visibility of the holographic fringes, is introduced to analyze the partial fringe localization in holographic interferometry, which is of practical interest to most researchers.     

Holography, speckle, and computers

Surveys are presented on automatic and quantitative deformation measurements using CCDs and computers in holographic interferometry and speckle metrology for diffusely reflecting surfaces. For delivering relationships between object deformation and observed quantities, we discuss formations of fringes and signals observed in these methods in terms of correlation functions of spatially randomly varying complex amplitude of light. Dependencies of the observed patterns on object deformation and optical systems are discussed. Physical meanings of the derived relationships are explained in terms of the dynamic behaviors of speckles resulting from surface deformation. Automatic measurements are described in chronological orders. They include analysis of fringe patterns resulting from photographic recording of specklegrams, video recording and analysis of speckle patterns used in electronic speckle pattern interferometry as well as direct digital correlation techniques, and digital holography that uses both digital recording and reconstruction of holograms.     

Mechanical characterization of unplasticised polyvinylchloride thick pipes by optical methods

In this work a number of techniques (electronic speckle pattern interferometry, holographic interferometry, strain gauge and finite element method) are brought to bear in order to establish consistency in the results of strain measurement. This is necessary if optical non-destructive testing methods, such as those used here, are to gain acceptance for routine industrial use. The FE model provides a useful check. Furthermore, ESPI fringe data facilitates the extension of FE models, an approach that is of growing importance in component testing.

The use of in-plane and out-of-plane sensitive electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) for non-destructive material characterization of thick unplasticised polyvinylchloride (uPVC) pipes is presented. A test rig has been designed for stressing pipes by internal pressure. ESPI gives a complete mapping of the displacement field over the area imaged by the video camera. The results for the strain of uPVC obtained from ESPI data and from strain gauges are in good agreement. The value of Young's modulus has been obtained from the fringe data and compared with results obtained using holographic interferometry and from strain gauge measurements. The FE model also produces fringe data that is consistent with the ESPI results.     

Application of ESPI to NDT

Interest in optical methods of NDT increased rapidly with the advent of holographic interferometry which made it possible to observe surface increments of less than 1 μm on practically any surface texture. Invariably the optical method is coupled with a mechanical loading cycle which tests the component directly in terms of its strength, a claim which cannot be made for most other NDT methods. Holographic interferometry is unfortunately slow and expensive to apply and other methods of optical examination based on coherent optical scattering have been investigated. Of particular interest in the author's laboratories is the technique of electronic speckle pattern interferometry. This technique enables a process directly comparable with holographic interferometry to be carried out with a specially adapted closed circuit television system, giving on line information. This work is discussed together with some other relevant processes and methods of optical NDT.     

Comparison of phase recovery methods in spiral speckle pattern interferometry correlation fringes

Spiral interferometry can be used as a solution to the problem of sign ambiguity presented in the conventional speckle pattern interferometric technique when the optical phase needs to be reconstructed from a single closed fringe system. Depressions and elevations of the topography corresponding to the object deformation are distinguished by the direction of rotation of the local spiral fringe pattern. In this work, we implement and compare several methods for optical phase reconstruction by analyzing a single image composed of spiral speckle pattern interferometry correlation fringes. The implemented methods are based on contour line demodulation, center line demodulation, Spiral Phase Quadrature Transform and the 2D Riesz transform with multivector structure. Contour line and center line demodulation approaches are exclusively dedicated to images containing a fringe system with spiral structure. The others are based on the 2D Riesz transform, these being well known approaches in conventional interferometry. We examine simulated experiments and analyze some of the emerging drawbacks for solving the phase reconstruction problem by using different mean values of speckle size and background noise levels. We also discuss several numerical procedures that may well improve the efficiency and robustness of the presented numerical implementations. The performance of the implemented demodulation methods is evaluated by using a universal image quality index and therefore a quantitative comparison is also presented.     

Nanoscale deformation measurement by using the hybrid method of gray-level and holographic interferometry

This study extends the use of holographic interferometry to measure the nanoscale out-of-plane displacement with high surface resolution. It is noted that if the deformation is less than half of the optical wavelength, it is hard to find an obvious fringe pattern. Under such a situation, in general, the phase shift method is used. However, it needs to take more than 3 images for phase shifting and phase reconstruction In this paper, a more simple hybrid method of gray-level and holographic interferometry is used to extract fringe skeletons, in which it just needs to take one or two images for the normal deformation measurement directly, even if there exists no obvious fringe pattern. The displacement field with high surface resolution can also be obtained. The proposed method yielded a theoretical precision of 0.15 nm for out-of-plane displacement with a monochromatic CCD camera of 10-bit gray scale (1024 gray scales) sensitivity and microscale surface resolution for millimeter scale object with 640×480 pixels image resolution by an He–Ne LASER (632.8 nm wavelength) light source. The gray-level method is proposed to calculate the non-obvious interferometry fringe by traditional holographic interferometry hologram, and the result showed that this method works for this purpose.

A derivative based simplified phase tracker for a single fringe pattern demodulation

In this paper, a novel fringe demodulation method for the estimation of phase and its first-order derivative from a closed-fringe interferogram is proposed. The proposed method determines the phase derivatives in both x&y directions from fringe orientation and density. The phase derivatives are subsequently used to determine phase values using a novel simplified phase tracker. In the phase tracking model, the complexity of the cost function is reduced using predetermined derivatives so computation time required for phase tracking is reduced considerably. The proposed model is more robust while dealing with saddle points in fringes than the conventional phase tracker model. Hence it does not require any specialized scanning strategy. The proposed method is validated with simulated and experimental fringe patterns (obtained using electronic speckle pattern interferometry and optical holographic interferometry) and a comparison study is carried out with conventional regularized phase tracker. The simulation results show that the proposed method has good accuracy and requires less computation time than existing phase-tracking algorithms. The experimental results demonstrate the robustness of the proposed method against speckle noise and its practical applicability for static and dynamic applications.
