Abstract

A digital method is proposed whereby spatial speckles created when an optically rough surface is illuminated by a diffuse coherent laser beam are used to generate slope contour fringes. This is done by photographing the speckles contained in a parallel plane in front of the plate before and after deformation. The resulting photographs are then Fast Fourier Transformed twice with the digital image correlation software CASI to produce slope contours.
