Chiang, F P

Theoretical and applications aspects of optical measurement technology are examined in reviews and reports. Topics addressed include photoelasticity, speckle techniques, geometric moire methods, holographic and speckle interferometry, optical NDE, moire interferometry (MI), fracture and fatigue, velocimetry and fluid mechanics, and digital techniques. Consideration is given to optical determination of stress-intensity factors, fringe formation in shearing speckle interferometry, optical and photomechanical methods for mechanical joints, the use of optical fibers in MI methods for vibration, IR thermography for NDE, laser MI for adhesive joints, shadow-optical analysis of dynamic shear fracture, MI strain analysis of a bonded dissimilar composite T joint, particle-image velocimetry, multiple-frame interferometry for visualization of rocket exhaust plumes, and rotationally symmetric operators for fringe-boundary edge detection in photomechanics.
