Optical measuring systems, such as holographic interferometry, speckle interferometry and speckle correlation make it possible to achieve the graphic, 3-dimensional surface area and very accurate measurement of deformations and vibration amplitudes. These systems are suitable tools for the optimising of construction features.
OPTIMISING OF CONSTRUCTIONSThe spectrum of uses ranges from static loading up to the examining of dynamic processes, e.g. vibration analyses.The following examples should give an insight into what is possible with this system, and what information it could provide the constructor with about his construction part.Using the example of an industrial machine, the tracing of a structural weak spot should be described. In the sewing of thin materials at maximum speed, faulty stitches were detected at regular intervals. As this problem does not occur at other speeds, it is assumed that the cause lies with vibrations dependant on the number of revolutions of the whole machine or of the individual machine parts. 240 / SPIE Vol. 1553 Laser Interferometry IV Computer-Aided /nterferometry(1991) 0-8194-0681 -3/92/$4.O0 Downloaded From: http://proceedings.spiedigitallibrary.org/ on 07/12/2015 Terms of Use: http://spiedl.org/terms
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
