Full field residual stress determination using hole-drilling and electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) with phase unwrapping method
The hole-drilling strain gauge technique has become a standard method in
measuring residual stresses [1]. Moiré interferometry combining hole-drilling
method opens additional opportunity for full-field residual stress measurement
using optical interferometry [2]. The optical moiré method has a non-contact
feature comparing with strain gauge method. Yet Moiré interferometry suffers a
drawback in its complicated grating preparation on one hand and it is difficult
to be applied to work piece with complicated geometry on the other hand.
Electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) provides information about the
displacement field of a surface and it can be conveniently used on asreceived
surfaces without special surface preparation and can be applied to work piece
with complicated geometry that may be unsuitable for applying strain gauge or
gratings. Studies on combining ESPI with hole-drilling show that is feasible to
obtain reasonable residual stress values [3, 4]. The purpose of this study was
to demonstrate the detail of hole-drilling technique combining ESPI with phase
unwrapping method to reveal the full field stress distribution and to measure
the associated stress field on a thin specimen exerted by a uni-axial load. This
study also demonstrates the noise reduction achieved by Gaussian low pass filter
and a successful phase unwrapping resulted from five-step phase shifting and
cellular automata method.
Figure 1 shows the experimental setup of the ESPI system and the hole-drilling
system. The light from a laser source is split into two beams. One split beam
emerges from a PZT-stage to provide stepwise phase shifting and it further
interferes with the other split image beam on the specimen surface to produce
speckle patterns onto the CCD camera. By recording the speckle images of
stepwise phase shifting before and after hole-drilling, the fringe patterns at
each step can be obtained. Through a uniaxial loading fixture loads with
different stress magnitudes in the range between 50 MPa and 150 MPa were applied
to produce different degrees of loading and the associated fringe patterns. A
five-step phase shifting was used in this work. Continuous phase distribution
was achieved using phase unwrapping method.
Gaussian low pass filter was applied and a suitable cut-off frequency was
selected to effectively reduce the noise of patterns especially in the vicinity
of the hole and to obtain a continuous phase map with closed contours. The
continuous phase maps were reconstructed with higher quality and lower noise by
applying the Schmitt’s five-step phase shifting algorithm and cellular automata
(CA) phase unwrapping method. Special caution should be put on the phase
unwrapping around the hole.
Reducing the image area considered in the CA computation effectively reduced the CA computation
time with stress values still in the range with satisfactory accuracy. Theoretical fringe patterns at
each phase shifting step and at different stress magnitudes were constructed to compare with the
experimental ones, Fig. 2. The relationship between displacement, stress and the number of fringes
and the change of fringe patterns was analyzed to validate the feasibility of the ESPI combining
hole-drilling method and to verify the accuracy of the stress results. Error analysis shows that the
error between theoretical results and experimental data is in general less than 20
