Holographic Interferometry

Holographic Interferometry provides a valuable and
up-to-date source of      information in the rapidly expanding
field. The eight specialists`               contributions cover the
principles and methods currently in use. The scope   of the
book has been limited to the study of opaque object and
ample      space has been devoted to a comprehensive treatment of
the phenomena of      fringe formation, with a particular
emphasis on the quantitative evaluation of the holographic
interference fringe patterns. The emergence                     of
computer-aided fringe analysis and phase-shifting techniques
have      simplified considerably the quantative real-time
measurements of object      shapes and deformations. The last two
chapters provide a reasonably detailedoverview of
full-field holographic methods for the measurement                     of
shapes, displacements, dervatives, difference displacements
and         vibrations.
