Abstract

This paper presents a simple spatial phase shift shearography based on the Michelson interferometer. A novel digital shearography set-up with a large angle of view, which is based on a 4f system is demonstrated. In the system, the Michelson interferometer is used as a shearing device to generate a shearing distance by tilting a small angle in one of the two mirrors. In fact spherical wave fronts become plane after going through the first lens in 4f system. Tilting the mirror in the Michelson interferometer also generates spatial carrier frequency. Sinusoid fitting method is applied to evaluate the phase. This system can generate a phase map of shearography by using only a single image. The effects of shearing angle, the choice of algorithm and comparison result are discussed in detail. The theory and the application are presented.
