Abstract

Multimode-fiber optics are used to holographically record surface deformation in remote areas of a structure Dispiacement patterns agree well with theory, indicating that the proposed technique is feasible. Inherent difficulties encountered with multimode fibers are discussed and guidlines are established for further studies. designed to improve holographic displacement recording using monodode fibers.
