Recently, the study on the vibration analysis of machinery is greatly important and ESPI is widely used because of its many attractive features. Firstly, ESPI can be used to measure the vibration mode shape and the phase in real-time. Secondly, the conventional measuring methode, such as accelerometers, take much time to measure the whole field of object, but ESPI needs shorter time than other methods. Because ESPI is a field-inspection method. Thirdly, ESPI is a non-contact measuring system. ESPI does not have influence on the specimen. Beyond these features, there are several advantages in ESPI system. In this paper, the Stroboscopic ESPI system is described for measurement of a vibration mode shape. The Stroboscopic ESPI system had been used to visualize the vibration mode shape, in which EO(Electro-Optic)modulator was used to chop CW(Continuous Wavefront)laser. But it was not easy to control EO modulator and quantified the vibration amplitude and the phase of circular metal plate. At first, we found resonant frequency of the specimen by using time-averaged ESPI method. Nextly, the amplitudes of specimen were quantified by using Stroboscopic ESPI and we compare the results which were obtained in several chopping ratio.

The ESPI (Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry) algorithm has been simulated to calculate vibrational modes of a thin right-angled STS304 plate. The phase transformation of the reference wave of the ESPI is carried out only one time during vibration in order to clarify ESPI speckle patterns. Two dimensional vibrational modes are calculated from one ESPI pattern before vibration onset and two ESPI patterns during vibrations but with and without the phase transformation. The ESPI harmonic results are compared with those derived from the finite element method (FEM), and they agree very well. Additionally a phase unwrapping algorithm has been newly developed to derive a displacement map from an ESPI phase map.

An optical defect detection method using ESPI(electronic speckle pattern interferometry) is proposed. ESPI is widely used as a non-contact measurement system which show deformation and phase map in real time. ESPI can be divided as the in-plane, out-of-plane and shearography by operation principle and target object and also divided with bulk type and optic fiber type by the optic configurations. This paper is focused on optic fiber type out-of-plane ESPI, which has the following advantages: (1) low cost; (2) reduction of the unreliable factors generated by separated optic components; (3) simplification of the optic configuration; (4) great reduction of volume; (5) flexibility, to be easily designed into different structures to adapt to inaccessible environments such as pipeline cavity and so on.

In this paper, artificial and real defects(delamination and debond) in composite structures were detected by using ESPI system. Three types of specimens, that is, composite laminates, honeycomb structures, and adhesive joints, were used to study the applicability of ESPI to composite structures. To detect defects in specimens, we selected thermal loading method that can easily induce the surface deformation of specimen. Experimental results show that defects in composite structures could be easily detected by ESPI. Moreover, it shows that ESPI could be usefully applied to the detection of defects in various composite structures.

본 논문에서는 4변이 고정된 정사각형 알루미늄 평판의 진동 진폭을 측정하기 위하여, 기존의 위상 이동 ESP떼 스트로보스코프식 조사를 적용한 스트로보스코픽 ESPI 기법을 이용하였다. 일반적으로 시간평균 ESPI를 이용하면 진동하고 있는 대상체의 정성적인 진동 패턴을 측정할 수 있다. 그러나 시간평균 ESPI로는 진동하고 있는 대상체의 두께방향으로의 진폭량을 측정하기는 어렵다. 또한 일반적인 위상이동법을 적용시킬 경우, 대상체가 진동을 하게 됨으로써 정확한 진동 진폭을 측정하기 어렵다.(중략)

ESPI is a noncontact, nondestructive and relatively fast inspection method. For these reasons ESPI is being applied as a valuable tool in the nondestructive evaluation of structural components. Phase shifting ESPI is used more effectively than the traditional ESPI because spatial resolution of small object displacements are improved and numerical phase values are obtained for all pixels in the image. Consequently the quantitative measurement of deformation is possible. ESPI fringe patterns are contaminated with high levels of speckle noise. Therefore the phase image is to be smoothed to remove the noise and obtain a better signal-to-noise ratio. In this study, smoothing is done by phase shifting convolution to avoid smoothing errors close to the 2$\pi$ phase ambiguities in the deformation phase image, and median filter is used as a smoothing filter.

Electric Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) using a CW-laser, a video system and an image processor was applied to the thermal coefficient measurements on free thermal expansions at high temperatures : ESPI provides the distribution of in-plane displacement resolved in a preselected direction. ESPI retains the merits of little or no surface preparation, no contact with the surface and the real-time presentation of interference fringes. Appling ESPI at high temperatures, several problem which caused the reduction of fringe visibility were encountered. The problem on the turbulence in the hot air surrounding high temperature objects will be solved by using a vacuum chamber. The background radiations from the objects were suppressed considerably by an interference filter. The problem on the oxidation of the object surface could't be solved. The interference fringe, whose spacings were calculated by FFT to avoid human error, were observable up to $800^{\circ}C$. The results measured by ESPI were nearly equal to the data which have already been published, up to about $800^{\circ}C$.

In this research, we accomplished the interpreting about the vibration of the object, which is the out of plane displacement in the Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI), one of the optical measuring technique. The vibrating object has a inherent nodal line, therefore we can get the information about the vibration of the object by interpreting it. we used a speaker and a cantilever plate for a measurement object, and interpreted it qualitatively by using the Time-Average ESPI. In this experimental result, the speaker has the lower mode of fringe at 550Hz, 570mV, and the higher mode of fringe at 950Hz, 570mV This ESPI is a non-destructive test, and because of using the laser at measuring, it has a high resolution. The ESPI can test vibration mode regardless of the test object size, because the area which illuminated laser is the test area.

This paper propose electronic speckle pattern interferometry(ESPI) for reliability evaluation of electronic device. Especially, vibration problem in a fan of air conditioner, motor of washing machine and etc. is important factor to design the devices. But, it is difficult to apply previous method, accelerometer to the devices with complex geometry. ESPI, non-contact measurement technique applies a commercial fan of air conditioner to vibration analysis. Vibration mode shapes, natural frequency and the range of the frequency are decided and compared with that of FEM analysis. In mechanical deign of new product, ESPI adds weak point of previous method to supply effective design information.
