Automatic analysis of moiré fringe patterns by using an image-processing system

This paper presents the whole process of analyzing moiré fringe patterns by using a computer-image-processing system. The main steps include: recording a fringe pattern, eliminating noise, thinning the fringes, assigning the fringes with fringe-order information, computing the strain field, outputing data tables, data curves, color two-dimensional computational displays and outputing in relief three-dimensional displays which represent strain and displacement. The method is highly automatic and gives visualized pictures and accurate results.     

Strain analysis for moiré interferometry using the two-dimensional continuous wavelet transform

In this paper, we introduce the two-dimensional continuous wavelet transform for the automated strain analysis of the moiré interference fringe pattern. The Fourier transform method has been widely used for automated analysis of an optical interference fringe pattern. However, this method is hardly applicable to the analysis of the fringe pattern, which includes large displacement range or discontinuities. We show the advantages of the wavelet transform method by applying it to experimental results on composite laminates.     

An intelligent hybrid method to automatically detect and eliminate experimental measurement errors for linear elastic deformation fields

In a previous study, to minimize or eliminate the errors and noises associated with a full-field experimental measurement and subsequent fringe analysis such as moiré interferometry, the authors derived a variational principle minimizing the experimental measurement errors. Furthemore, on the basis of this variational principle, the authors developed an intelligent hybrid method. In several test simulations, the method has demonstrated the automatic detection and elimination of randomly incorporated errors into known correct finite element displacement fields. In this study, a fringe analysis method is developed together with the two-dimensional fast Fourier transform method. Then, experimentally recorded moiré fringe patterns are analyzed by the fringe analysis method. The conventional and intelligent hybrid analyses are carried out using the analyzed fringe information as input data. The present method verifies the automatic detection of experimental errors and noises, and the simultaneous automatic elimination of those experimental errors. This method also makes it possible to obtain a fairly smooth visualization of higher order information such as the stress and strain distributions.     

Analytische Untersuchung von freier Konvektion und Filmsieden in laminaren Grenzschichten mit temperaturabhÄngigen Stoffwerten

A two-dimensional, stationary boundary layer modell is derived which allows the treatment of free convection and film boiling on vertical plate and horizontal cylinder under complete consideration of temperature dependent thermophysical properties. Some qualities of these boundary layer solutions are discussed by eleminating the influences of geometry. For horizontal cylinders, a correction of heat transfer for small diameters is given.     

Locally similar solutions for hydromagnetic and thermal slip flow boundary layers over a flat plate with variable fluid properties and convective surface boundary condition

This paper presents heat transfer process in a two-dimensional steady hydromagnetic convective flow of an electrically conducting fluid over a flat plate with partial slip at the surface of the boundary subjected to the convective surface heat flux at the boundary. The analysis accounts for both temperature-dependent viscosity and temperature dependent thermal conductivity. The local similarity equations are derived and solved numerically using the Nachtsheim-Swigert iteration procedure. Results for the dimensionless velocity, temperature and ambient Prandtl number within the boundary layer are displayed graphically delineating the effect of various parameters characterizing the flow. The results show that momentum boundary layer thickness significantly depends on the surface convection parameter, Hartmann number and on the sign of the variable viscosity parameter. The results also show that plate surface temperature is higher when there is no slip at the plate compared to its presence. For both slip and no-slip cases surface temperature of the plate can be controlled by controlling the strength of the applied magnetic field. In modelling the thermal boundary layer flow with variable viscosity and variable thermal conductivity, the Prandtl number must be treated as a variable irrespective of flow conditions whether there is slip or no-slip at the boundary to obtain realistic results.     

A multilevel treatment of moiré fringe data using finite elements

Finite element procedures are applied to the modeling, analysis and visualization of experimental moiré data. Smoothing elements are introduced and evaluated with respect to data sparseness and error. A one-dimensional smoothing element is uniquely coupled with the method of principal curves to extract moiré fringe centers. A two-dimensional smoothing element is then used to produce a full-field representation given the fringe locations. The moiré technique is applied to the four-point bend experiment, and the surface-modeling technique is used to obtain displacement and gradient (strain) information.     

Transient natural convection in a cavity with heat input and a constant temperature wall on opposite sides

The transient natural convection of a fluid with Prandtl number of order 200 in a two-dimensional square cavity has been numerically studied. One of the vertical walls of the cavity is kept at a constant (ambient) temperature and a constant heat flux is applied on the opposite wall. The other walls are adiabatic. Initially, a boundary layer is formed near the heated wall; subsequently, a large vortical structure is generated, together with an upper intrusion layer. As time progresses, the average temperature in the cavity increases, and a descending boundary layer is formed near the constant temperature wall. During the transition to the steady-state regime, a thermal stratification pattern is formed. The results are compared with the scale analysis presented by Patterson and Imberger (1980).     

A study of the asymptotic behaviour of the external fringes of compressible, laminar boundary layers of a dissociating gas

The structure of the hypersonic laminar boundary layer of an ideal dissociating gas far from the wall surface is analysed analytically for the case of (i) frozen flow and (ii) equilibrium flow corresponding to the local pressure and temperature, respectively. For the equilibrium flow also numerical results are given. It is observed that the transition zone between the viscous and the outer fringe of the boundary layer, which exists in the perfect gas case, is smeared out here due to the coupling between the imperfect nature of the gas and the viscosity of the gas.On leave from N.A.L., Bangalore, India.     

Analysis of transient temperature field in coke drums

One of the primary reasons leading to bulging and cracking in a coke drum is the severe temperature gradient due to cyclic temperature variation. Based on the twodimensional heat conduction theory, an analytical solution of the transient temperature field in the coke drum is obtained, which is different from the known FEM results. The length of the coke drum is considered finite. The dynamic boundary conditions caused by fluid uninterrupted rising in oiling and watering stages are simulated with the iteration method. Numerical results show that the present theoretical model can accurately describe basic features of the transient temperature field in the coke drum. Effects of the geometry of the coke drum and the rising velocity of quench water on the axial temperature gradient are also discussed.     

Computer-aided evaluation method for interferograms

For the quantitative evaluation of interferograms a video camera is used to digitize the interferograms in frames up to 512 by 512 pixels which are transmitted to a host computer. Quantitative data of the whole field are obtained by the following procedure: First the fringes are extracted with the help of binarization methods. Then to each fringe boundary a value is assigned in a certain point. Starting from this point the boundaries are traced through the whole pattern. Finally the data between the fringe boundaries are determined by linear interpolation. Other operations like smoothing can be done before the results are printed.

Application of holography to photoelasticity

This paper discusses the exploratory application of holography to photoelasticity. It is shown that the two-beam holographic method may be used to record the birefringent pattern of a standard two-dimensional photoelastic specimen. A special type of polariscope is required. A discussion is presented of the various arrangements required to produce isochromatic, isoclinic, isopachic and combined isopachic and isochromatic fringe patterns. The three-dimensional nature of the holograph is utilized to separate the principal stresses by means of oblique incidence. Both normal- and oblique-incidence fringe patterns are recorded on a single hologram. A brief discussion of the extension to the dynamic case is presented.     

Thermal Stresses in an Elastic Rectangle

The paper addresses the method of determining the two-dimensional thermal stresses in a rectangular isotropic plate or a long bar with arbitrary temperature distribution in the plane and with no variation in temperature through the thickness is presented. The thermal stress have been obtained by the superposition method in terms of Fourier series that satisfy the differential equation and the boundary conditions. The method is illustrated by two examples. The distribution of stresses along some typical lines in the rectangle are computed and the possibilities of approximate solutions are estimated.     

Temperature distributions in a periodically stratified layer with slant lamination

The paper deals with the two-dimensional stationary temperature distribution in a composite layer. The nonhomogenous body is assumed to be composed of periodically repeated two-layered laminae. The layering is inclined with an arbitrary angle to the boundary planes. The lower and upper boundary planes are assumed to be kept at given temperatures. The considered problem is solved within the framework of the homogenized model with microlocal parameters, where the continuity thermal conditions on interfaces are satisfied.     

Separation of principal stresses in dynamic photoelasticity

A new and effective method used to separate the transient principal stresses for dynamic photoelasticity is proposed. This is a hybrid method combining the optical method of dynamic caustics and the boundary element numerical method. Firstly, a modified Cranz-Schardin spark camera is used to record simultaneously the isochromatic fringe patterns of photoelasticity and the shadow spot patterns in the dynamic process. By means of the isochromatic fringe patterns, the difference between transient principal stresses in the whole domain and the principal stresses along the free boundary can be solved. In addition, the method of caustics is a very powerful technique for measuring the concentrative load. Then, the sum of the principal stresses is calculated by the boundary integral equation obtained from the Laplace integral transform of the wave equation. So, the transient principal stresses can be determined from the experimental and numerical results. As an example, the transient principal stresses in a polycarbonate disk under an impact load are resolved.

Photomechanical behavior of cellulose acetate under viscoelastoplastic deformation

To confirm the possibilities of cellulose acetate as a material for a model analysis during viscoelastoplastic deformation, the time-dependent photomechanical properties of the material were examined by means of creep tests under constant stress and recovery tests after removal of stress. Consequently, though the strain and the fringe order of cellulose acetate during creep and recovery are greatly influenced by stress and room temperature, both of them can be described simply by a power function of time, and the coefficient of each of these formulas can be represented by a function of the ratio of active stress to yield stress only. The effect of temperature is included in the formulation of the yield stress. In addition, the strain and the fringe order can be represented by the viscous-viscoelastic model proposed by Findleyet al.,^1,2 in which both of them are divided into four components: elastic, plastic, time-dependent irrecoverable viscous and time-dependent recoverable viscoelastic. The relation between viscoelastic strain and viscoelastic fringe order, and the relation between viscous strain and viscous fringe order were verified to be equivalent to that between plastic strain and plastic fringe order, all of which do not depend on stress, temperature or time. Therefore, the strain distribution of cellulose acetate under viscoelastoplastic deformation can be determined directly from the value of the fringe order measured.     

Disturbance propagation in two-dimensional boundary layers over a movable surface in the strong interaction regime

The dependence of the eigenvalues characterizing the disturbance propagation in hypersonic boundary layers on the temperature factor and the surface motion velocity is investigated. The eigenvalues are shown to decrease with an increase in the wall enthalpy. The results of the study are important for formulating well-posed problems for the time-dependent two-dimensional boundary layer equations and for developing adequate computational models.     

Two-dimensional moiré method and grid method using Fourier transform

Formerly, the authors presented one-dimensional strain analysis by a moiré method using a Fourier transform. In the present work, the method is extended to two-dimensional strain analysis. The analysis is completely automated by introducing digital image processing. All of the laborious and subjective procedures required in the classical and conventional moiré method, such as separation of the two gratings, fringe-sign determination, fringe ordering and fringe interpolation, are completely eliminated; and objective, fast and accurate analysis can be made.currently Engineer, Kansai Electric Power Co.
