Abstract:
|
A temporal wavelet analysis method is proposed for velocity, displacement, and three-dimensional
surface-profile measurement of a continuously deforming object by use of the shadow moire´ technique.
A grating is placed close to a deforming object, and its shadow is observed through the grating. The
moire´ fringe patterns, generated by the interference of the grating lines and their shadows, are captured
by a high-speed CCD camera with a telecentric gauging lens. Instantaneous frequency of gray-value
variation is evaluated point by point with the continuous wavelet transform. From the instantaneous
frequency of each point on the object, the velocity, displacement, and high-quality surface profile at
different instants can be retrieved. In this application, two specimens are tested to demonstrate the
validity of the proposed method: One is a small coin with a rigid body motion, and the other is a simply
supported beam subjected to a central point load. The results are compared with those obtained from
temporal Fourier-transform and mechanical stylus methods. |
