Holographic Interferometry

Bok av Pramod K Rastogi
Holographic Interferometry provides a valuable andup-to-date source of information in the rapidly expandingfield. The eight specialists` contributions cover theprinciples and methods currently in use. The scope of thebook has been limited to the study of opaque object andample space has been devoted to a comprehensive treatment ofthe phenomena of fringe formation, with a particularemphasis on the quantitative evaluation of the holographicinterference fringe patterns. The emergence ofcomputer-aided fringe analysis and phase-shifting techniqueshave simplified considerably the quantative real-timemeasurements of object shapes and deformations. The last twochapters provide a reasonably detailedoverview offull-field holographic methods for the measurement ofshapes, displacements, dervatives, difference displacementsand vibrations.
