A Digital Speckle Pattern Interferometry (DSPI) system is developed for the real-time measuring and monitoring the out-of-plane surface deformation around tightened threaded fasteners that are used to clamp bolted assemblies. Spatial phase shifting is employed to quantitatively determine the distribution of phase data by introducing a spatial carrier fringe pattern to the speckle interferogram. This is achieved by leading the object and reference beams to two separate apertures. The configuration is also suitable for collecting the real-time deformation during bolt tightening. The experimental DSPI system is set-up with optical components on a vibration-isolation table. A Matlab software is developed for the image acquisition and phase data calculation, which yields the out-of-plane surface deformation caused by the bolt preload. An aluminum joint is used with an M12 steel fastener. For miniature screw application, however, a plastic joint is used for collecting data.

AbstractThe construction and operation of electronic speckle pattern interferometer (ESPI) applied to single-inserted sandwich plates have been earliest presented in this paper. Proposed ESPI has advantages of full-field and non-destructive testing, which can measures microscopic out-of-plane displacement in the elastic region without wasting specimen. For validation purpose, the finite element method (FEM) analysis was conducted. By comparing the results of ESPI and FEM displacement fields around the inserts that a convincing agreement is revealed. The effect of potting material diameter on the displacement of single-inserted sandwich plates was obtained by the ESPI and FEM.

The study on deformation in impact-damaged graphite-fibre/epoxy stitched composite plates subjected to compressive load is presented. A delaminated cross-ply laminate [03/903]S obtained in low-velocity impact test has been examined using a self-designed anti-buckling device in compressive experiment. The out-of-plane displacement field of the specimen has been measured with an optical whole-filed measurement technique, which is carrier electronic speckle pattern interferometry (carrier-ESPI). Finite element (FE) simulation is also carried out to predict the deformation. The effect of the stitching line on compressive deformation is discussed for various stitched laminates. Finally, the numerical results are compared with experimental measurement deformations under different compressive loads.

In the present study, a real-time calibration method for micro displacement sensors is introduced, and a calibration system is developed. SPCM, the sequence pulse counting method previously proposed by us, is capable of automatically determining both the larger range displacement and the performance of a sensor, such as the nonlinear error and the displacement sensitivity within a quarter of the light source wavelength. The new calibration system consists of a programmable motor driven platform, an out-of-plane sensitive electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI), and a sequence image acquisition system. The platform is used to provide displacement changes of a moving component and its displacement is measured by the ESPI and calibrated sensor synchronously. The calibration accuracy of the proposed method is in the submicrometer level and the displacement range can be from sub-micrometer to millimeters depending on the storage capacity of the computer and the correlation property of the interferometer. Three capacitance-type displacement sensors have been calibrated successfully, whose displacement ranges are –300μm to 300μm, –30μm to 30μm, and –3μm to 3μm, respectively.

A digital speckle pattern interferometry (DSPI) system is developed for the real-time measurement and monitoring of the out-of-plane surface deformation around a preloaded bolt head or nut. The proposed system is specifically developed for the dynamic control of the bolt tightening process by continuously monitoring the out-of-plane joint surface deformation that will have been independently correlated to the bolt preload. Spatial phase shifting is employed to quantitatively determine the distribution of phase data by introducing a spatial carrier fringe pattern to the speckle interferogram. This is achieved by leading the object and reference beams through two separate apertures. The configuration is also suitable for collecting the real-time surface deformation during bolt tightening. The experimental DSPI system is set-up with optical components on a vibration-isolation table. A MATLAB software is developed for image acquisition and phase data calculations that yield the out-of-plane surface deformation caused by the bolt preload. The test fixture uses an M12 steel fastener and aluminum joint. For miniature screw applications, however, a plastic joint is used.
