This synopsis discusses our development efforts in the area of resonant holographic interferometry (RHI). RHI is a completely nonintrusive optical diagnostic suitable for a wide range of gas dynamic investigations. As described in previous reports, RHI is a hybrid technique that combines the multi-dimensional imaging capability of holography, the phase sensitive detection of interferometry, and...

In this paper, a ground-based SAR interferometry technology was used to monitor major engineering. This technology has been recognized as a powerful tool for terrain monitoring and structural change detecting. Deformation monitoring for large project has been a hot issue among them. According to GBSAR interferometry principle and characteristics of IBIS system, the authors analysis the error so...

Holographic interferometry in an electron microscope and its phase analysis technique are described. The fringe scanning method is used to gain high sensitivity in phase detection. An example of measuring a magnetic field of a fine particle is presented. The measurement accuracy for median filtering is about 1/70 fringe corresponding to the magnetic flux sensitivity of 6 x 10(-17) Wb. Noise red...

This paper is focused on spaceborne Differential Interferometric SAR (DInSAR) for land deformation measurement and monitoring. In the last two decades several DInSAR data analysis procedures have been proposed. The objective of this paper is to describe the DInSAR data processing and analysis tools developed at the Institute of Geomatics in almost ten years of research activities. Four main DIn...

Holography is an optical technique enabling to record phase objects. Holographic interferometry uses this faculty to make a phase object interfere with a memory of itself at a preceding time, recorded on a hologram. Interference fringes therefore inform on any variation of the phase of the object. For the study of liquids, these phase changes can result from the evolution of temperature or conc...

Techniques are presented which take advantage of the wavelength dependence of various phenomena in holographic interferometry. Image-plane interferograms illuminated with light containing multiple wavelengths exhibit color dispersion of the fringes. We extract from this dispersion, fullfield information concerning displacement components which are not disclosed by monochromatic illumination. Th...

A method for real time 3D measurements based on three-color digital holographic interferometry is presented and applied to the investigation of fracture mechanisms in laminate composite submitted to a three point flexural loading. A convolution algorithm allows the three monochrome images to be superposed to provide simultaneous full-field 3D measurements. Experimental results are presented and...

Interferometry based on double exposure Fourier transform holography in photorefractive crystals is applied for visualization of aerodynamic flow fields. The interferograms obtained are of similar quality as those produced using holographic film but with greatly simplified procedures. The results presented are obtained using a high-power cw argon laser and iron doped lithium niobate crystals. T...

Recently it was demonstrated that holographic interferometry could be used to quantify minute displacements of a mature Stapelia variegata Linn. The previously unobtainable measurements revealed that the short term response of the stapelia was regular enough so that the dynamics could be evaluated through the use of a highly damped mass, spring, dashpot model. Such a model is derived explicitly...

Application of the holographic interferometry and speckle photography in the primary stability determination of a mandible undergoing the bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) is described. Measurements were carried out on Synbone models of human mandibles representing three different techniques of stabilisation. The maximum value criterion of the cut edge displacement components was used f...
