Speckle photography is a very useful method for measuring in-plane surface displacement. In its basic form, the object to be studied is illuminated with a divergent laser beam, and a double exposure photograph of the object is recorded, on a fine-grain film or plate, before and after the object is deformed, The magnitude and the direction of the displacement can then be obtained by measuring the spacing and the direction of the Young's fringe, which is produced by probing the developed negative with an unexpaned laser beam, and consists of a pattern of parallel equi-spaced dark bands. In this paper, a hybrid optical and electronic image processing is described-Young's fringe on the viewing screen is observed by a TV-camera and the 2-D video signal is converted from analog to digital and transfered to the computer where the spacing and direction of the fringes are calculated. Several examples of application show that the displacement magnitude and direction can be determined with an accuracy of $0.1{\mu}m\;and\;0.1^{\circ}$ respectively.

The proposed method enhances the resolution of images by removing noise using wavelet transform to remove noise from images generated by ultrasound diagnosis. We propose an algorithm to reduce the speckle noise and enhance the edge of the ultrasound image. The proposed algorithm can enhance edges of various sizes by using wavelet transform which can use both frequency and spatial information. Experimental results show that the performance of the algorithm for noise reduction of ultrasound images is about 0.45ms for $520{\times}440$ images.

Holospeckle interferometry, the combined technique of holographic interferometry and speckle photography, was applied to the measurement of 3-D contact deformation created by an indentor. This new tech$.$ nique makes possible to measure both in-plane and out-of-plane displacements from one photographic plate. In this study, the optical system based on image holography was set up. In order to enhance the size and the contrast of the speckle, a proper magnification and a low reference beam ratio was used as compared with the conventional holographic interferometry technique. This system shows the magnified and clear holographic interference fringe as well as Young's fringe patterns.tterns.

Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI) is one of optical technique to measure displacement precisely, uses CCD camera to show result image in real time. General ESPI system measures in-plane or out-of-plane displacement. Shearography is one of electronic speckle pattern interferometric methods which allow full-field observation of surface displacement derivatives and it is robust in vibration. The shearography provides non-contacting technique of evaluating defects nondestructively. In this study, the shearography was used to evaluate defects in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic(CFRP). Various sizes of artificial defects were embedded in various depths of woven CFRP plate. Effects due to the variation of size and depth of defects were evaluated in this study.

A field theoretical approach to deformation and fracture of solid-state material is outlined, and its application to diagnosis of deformational status of metal specimens is discussed. Being based on a fundamental physical principle known as local symmetry, this approach is intrinsically scale independent, and capable of describing all stages of deformation on the same theoretical foundation. This capability enables us to derive criteria that can be used to diagnose transitions from the elastic to plastic regime, and the plastic to fracturing regime. For practical applications of these criteria, an optical interferometric technique known as electronic speckle-pattern interferometry is proved to be quite powerful; it is able to visualize the criteria as a whole image of the object on a real-time basis without numerical processing. It is demonstrated that this method is able to reveal loading hysteresis as well.

Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI) using the Model 95 Ar laserm, a video system and an image processor was applied to the in-plane displacement measurements. Unlike traditional strain gauges or moire method, ESPI method requires no special surface preparation or attachments and can be measured in-plane displacement with no contact and real time. In this experiment wpecimen was loaded in parallel with a loadcell. The specimen was the cold rolled sdteel sheet of 2mm thickness, which was attached strain gauges. The study provides an example of how ESPI have been used to measure strain displacement in this specimen. The results measured by ESPI have been used to measure strain displacement in this specimen. The results measured by ESPI have been used to measure strain displacement in this specimen. The results measured by ESPI compare with the data which was measured by strain gauge method in tensile testing.

This study discusses a non-contact optical technique, electronic speckle pattern interferometry(ESPI), that is well suited for a deformation measurement of structure. Phase shifting method and unwrapping method have used to make deformation quantitative widely. In this paper, a previous numerical formula for phase shifting method is reconstructed in addition to least square fitting method to improve sensitivity and phase unwrapping based on vertical-horizontal scanning method is applied to analyze in-plane and out-of-plane deformation quantitatively.

Velocity and density distributions of a high-speed and initial $CO_{2}$ jet flow have been analyzed simultaneously by a developed three-dimensional digital speckle tomography and a particle image velocimetry(PIV). Three high-speed cameras have been used for tomography and PIV since a shape of a nozzle for the jet flow is asymmetric and the initial flow is fast and unsteady, The speckle movements between no flow and $CO_{2}$ jet flow have been obtained by a cross-correlation tracking method so that those distances can be transferred to deflection angles of laser rays for density gradients. The three-dimensional density fields for the high-speed $CO_{2}$ jet flow have been reconstructed from the deflection angles by a real-time tomography method and the two-dimensional velocity fields have been calculated by a PIV method simultaneously and instantaneously.

The magnitude of the plastic zone around the crack tip of DENT (Double Edge Notched Tension) specimen and the crack growth length under cyclic loading were measured by ESPI (Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry) system. The measured magnitude of plastic zone was compared with the proposed by Irwin and calculated by a nonlinear static method of MSC/NASTRAN. The measured crack growth length by ESPI system was also compared with the obtained data by the image analysis system. From the study, it is confirmed that the plastic zone and crack growth length can be measured accurately with the high-tech equipment (ESPI System).

SAR 영상의 Speckle noise는 해석을 방해하는 요인이 되고 분류할 때 분류정확도를 떨어뜨리는 역할을 하기 때문에 이를 감소시키기 위한 전처리 과정이 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 SAR 영상의 Speckle noise를 줄이기 위해서 영상의 특성을 분석하고 영상에 맞는 wavelet 변환을 이용한 필터링 기법과 Variogram에 기반한 필터링 기법을 제시하고 SAR 영상에 대한 적용 실험을 수행하였으며 그 결과를 분석하였다. 실험 결과 variogram 기반 필터링은 기존의 adaptive filter와 유사한 결과를 보였고 wavelet 기반 필터링은 기존의 필터링보다 좀 더 나은 결과를 보였다.
