Measurement of transverse vibrations/visualization of mode shapes in square plate by using digital speckle pattern interferometry and wavelet transform

摘要

New filtering scheme is investigated and implemented on digital speckle pattern interferometric, fringes to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in the speckle interferograms. To establish the potential of new filtering scheme the experiment was conducted on the vibrating cantilever beam. Experimental results revealed that the new filtering scheme is more powerful than other known filtering schemes (Kumar et al. Opt Laser Eng 2004;41:81-93. Kumar et al. Opt Laser Technol 2001;33:567-571. Shakher et al. Opt Eng 2002;41:176-180. Shakher et al. Proceedings ICICS, Singapore, 9-12 September 1997, p. 953-956. Bowler et al. Proceedings of IEE second international conference on image processing, London, 1986, p. 24-26. Lim. Opt Eng 1981;20:670-678. Devila et al. J Mod Opt 1995;42:1795-1804; Kaufmann et al. Opt Eng 19961-35:9-14). The new scheme reduced the speckle noise and improved SNR in speckle interferograms. Further, the new investigated filtering scheme is implemented to study the mode shapes of square plates under two different boundary conditions. In the first condition all the edges of the square plate were fixed while in the second condition two adjacent edges were fixed and the remaining two edges were free. From the experimental results it is clear that the mode shapes are more distinctly visible with the implementation of the new filtering scheme as compared to other known schemes. Under both the boundary conditions the recorded resonance frequencies were compared with the calculated values of resonance frequencies based on classical theory. The results obtained form DSPI show good agreement with classical theory. (c) 2005 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
