Deformation reconstruction by means of surface optimization. Part II: time-resolved electronic speckle pattern interferometry.

ABSTRACT

An analysis of time-resolved electronic speckle pattern interferograms using an optimization algorithm is shown to provide full-field measurements of transient surface deformation. The arrangement uses a continuous-wave laser and high-speed camera to capture speckle images, with the recovery of the time-resolved deformation achieved by spatiotemporal processing using an optimization algorithm. It is shown that the process allows imaging of high-speed non-monotonic out-of-plane displacements with sub-micrometer amplitude. Time-resolved amplitude and phase recovery is demonstrated by analyzing the out-of-plane deformation of harmonic and transient events in a friction membranophone.
