Optical differentiation of displacement patterns using moire interferometry

Abstract

New methods of optical differentiation of fringe patterns obtained by the moire interferometry method are presented. They provide spatial derivatives of in-plane and out-of-plane displacements of the specimen under load in the form of moire or two-beam interference fringes. Either the uniform or finite fringe detection mode can be used. Simulation experiments using specially prepared transmission-type gratings are given to verify the principles.
