“…The propagation elastic waves in plates and pipes using holographic interferometry techniques were proposed by several authors (Aprahamian, 1971;Fallstrom, 1989a;Fallstrom, 1989b;Olofsson, 1994;Fallstrom, 1998). A double pulse Laser technique is used to measure the displacements in isotropic plates (Aprahamian, 1971;Olofsson, 1994), anisotropic plates (Fallstrom, 1989a;Fallstrom, 1989b;Olofsson, 1994;Fallstrom, 1998) and anisotropic tubes (Olofsson, 1994;.…”
