An optical defect detection method using ESPI(electronic speckle pattern interferometry) is proposed. ESPI is widely used as a non-contact measurement system which show deformation and phase map in real time. ESPI can be divided as the in-plane, out-of-plane and shearography by operation principle and target object and also divided with bulk type and optic fiber type by the optic configurations. This paper is focused on optic fiber type out-of-plane ESPI, which has the following advantages: (1) low cost; (2) reduction of the unreliable factors generated by separated optic components; (3) simplification of the optic configuration; (4) great reduction of volume; (5) flexibility, to be easily designed into different structures to adapt to inaccessible environments such as pipeline cavity and so on.

Dual-function interferometer is an interferometer that has all features of ESPI (electronic speckle pattern interferometry) and shearography in one interferometer setup. The deformatiou of an object is directly obtained by ESPI while the slope of the deformation of an object is obtained by shearography. If the result of shearography is divided by shearing amount and integrated by numerical analyzing, then finally the reconstructed deformation of an object that is the same as the results directly obtained by ESPI can be measured by shearography. In this study, rubber and alruminum plates are used as specimen and its out-of-plane deformation is measured by ESPI and shearography setup of the dual-function interferometer. Each of the results obtained by ESPI and shearography is compared by using numerical integration to the result of shearography. From this study, it is confirmed that the reconstructed deformation results obtained by numerical integration good agree with the results obtained by ESPI.

Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI) is a common method for measuring out-of-plane deformation and in-plane deformation and applied for vibration analysis and strain/stress analysis. However, ESPI is sensitive to environmental disturbance, which provide the limitation of industrial application. On the other hand, Shearography based on shearing interferometer which is insensitive to vibration disturbance can directly measure the first derivative of out-of-plane deformation. In this paper a technique that extract out-of-plane deformation from results of shearography by numerical processing is proposed and measurement results of ESPI and Shearoraphy are compared quantitatively.

Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) has been recently developed and widely used because it has advantage to be able to measure surface deformations of engineering components and materials in industrial areas with non-contact. The spekle patterns to be formed with interference phenomena of scattering phenomena measure the out-of-plane deformations, together with the use of digital image equipment to process the informations included in the speckle patterns and the display consequent interferogram on a computer monitor. In this study, the experimental results of a canti-levered plate using ESPI were compared with those obtained from the simple beam theory. The ESPI results of the canti-levered plate analyzed by 4-step phase shifting method are close to the theoretical expectation. Also, out-0of-plane displacements of a spot welded canti-levered plate were measured by ESPI with 4-step phase shifting technique. The phase map of the spot welded canti-levered plate is quite different from that of the canti-levered plate without spot welding.

This study discusses a non-contact optical technique electronic, electronic speckle pattern interferometry(ESPI) that is well suited for in-plane and out-of-plane deformation measurement Used as specimen which has the boundary condition of two clamped parallel edges composite material AS4/PEEK[30/-30/90]s was analyzed by ESPI to determined the characteristics of tensile and vibration. These are quantitativly compared with the result of FEM analysis. Finally the results of this study are briefly summarized as follows : (1) In the in-plane strain analysis by comparison of theoretical results with experimental results qualitatively we confirmed that measurement errors are within 3 % in case of accuracy (2) From comparison of experimental vibration modes with numerical vibration mode shapes by the FEM analysis quantitatively we confirmed that vibration mode measurement by the ESPI has high accuacy.

In this research, we accomplished the interpreting about the vibration of the object, which is the out of plane displacement in the Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI), one of the optical measuring technique. The vibrating object has a inherent nodal line, therefore we can get the information about the vibration of the object by interpreting it. we used a speaker and a cantilever plate for a measurement object, and interpreted it qualitatively by using the Time-Average ESPI. In this experimental result, the speaker has the lower mode of fringe at 550Hz, 570mV, and the higher mode of fringe at 950Hz, 570mV This ESPI is a non-destructive test, and because of using the laser at measuring, it has a high resolution. The ESPI can test vibration mode regardless of the test object size, because the area which illuminated laser is the test area.

This paper proposes Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI) for the quantitative buckling analysis of square tube, which is unable to be measured with previous methods. The quantitative buckling analysis in elasticity is important part to study strain-stress analysis of thick-plated tube and fatigue analysis. However, it is unsolved problem with theory and previous experimental method. The merits of ESPI, Whole-filed measurement and high accurate 3D-displacement measurement make it possible to determinate the buckling analysis in elasticity quantitatively.

The measuring of internal defects of objects using the shearography has many advantages. It is a non-contact and non-destructive method and It has a real time measurement speed and no constraints of object shape. Compared to ESPI(Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry), Shearography has a very low error rate by vibration and air turbulence. So shearography provides possibilities of industrial application. In this paper, Image processing algorithm that is measurement of out-of-plane deformation using the shearography is proposed by developed using the LabVIEW 2010 and measurement result of out-of-plane ESPI and Shearography are compared quantitatively.
