Composite mobile system for holographic nondestructive testing
Innovation provides a single system flexible enough to test objects ranging from large amplitude displacement and/or velocities down to extremely small displacements and/or velocities by making only a few minor adjustments in the component arrangements
Photography of random motion with a holographic camera
Three-dimensional system uses two additional mirrors and path compensators. It is essentially three mutually-orthogonal one-dimensional systems with common focus. Laser beam is split into four parts, three of which are object beams; and fourth is reference beam. Size of each ellipse depends on magnitude of velocity vectors
Holographic system for nondestructive testing
A description is given of a holographic system for nondestructive testing. The system is comprised of a mirror which illuminates the test object surface; the mirror is positionable to direct illumination on an object at varying angles with respect to a line normal to the surface of the object. In this manner holograms may be produced with varying degrees of sensitivity enabling optimum observation of dimensions of deformation of an object occurring between test exposures
Coherence-length extender
Holograms of large objects may be formed by using several coherent low-intensity laser sources. If several low intensity laser sources are available, they can be applied simultaneously. Each source is then used to establish one object beam and one reference beam whose path lengths are equal, recording a small portion of the total object
Real time moving scene holographic camera system
A holographic motion picture camera system producing resolution of front surface detail is described. The system utilizes a beam of coherent light and means for dividing the beam into a reference beam for direct transmission to a conventional movie camera and two reflection signal beams for transmission to the movie camera by reflection from the front side of a moving scene. The system is arranged so that critical parts of the system are positioned on the foci of a pair of interrelated, mathematically derived ellipses. The camera has the theoretical capability of producing motion picture holograms of projectiles moving at speeds as high as 900,000 cm/sec (about 21,450 mph)
Hybrid holographic non-destructive test system
An automatic hybrid holographic non-destructive testing (HNDT) method and system capable of detecting flaws or debonds contained within certain materials are described. This system incorporates the techniques of optical holography, acoustical/optical holography and holographic correlation in determining the structural integrity of a test object. An automatic processing system including a detector and automatic data processor is used in conjunction with the three holographic techniques for correlating and interpreting the information supplied by the non-destructive systems. The automatic system also includes a sensor which directly translates an optical data format produced by the holographic techniques into electrical signals and then transmits this information to a digital computer for indicating the structural properties of the test object. The computer interprets the data gathered and determines whether further testing is necessary as well as the format of this new testing procedure
Theoretical light curves of dipole oscillations in roAp stars
Context.
The dipole modes are the most common geometry of oscillations in roAp stars inferred from photometric measurements and are therefore of special interest for asteroseismic purposes.
Aims.
We present a theoretical and analytical study of the light curves associated with dipole (â„“ = 1) pulsations of roAp stars in the framework of the revisited oblique pulsator model.
Methods.
We describe the light curves in terms of the inclination and polarization of the elliptical displacement vector of the dipole modes. We study the influence of the magnetic field and rotation on the shape of these light curves for both amplitudes and phases.
Results.
Despite the inclination of dipole mode with respect to the magnetic axis, we find that the dipole mode can have maxima that are in phase with the magnetic maxima. We apply our formalism to the well-known roAp star HR 3831 (HD 83368) to derive its mode properties. Our results are similar to those obtained by time-series spectroscopy. We also consider the cases of three other roAp stars, HD 6532, HD 99563, and HD 128898 (α Cir).
Conclusions.
We demonstrate that the formalism of the revisited oblique pulsator model is adequate to explain the properties of the photometric light curves associated with dipole modes in roAp stars. In addition, we show that the coincidence of pulsation and magnetic extrema can also occur for inclined modes with respect to the magnetic axis. With the stars considered in this paper, we conclude that the polarization of the modes present in roAp stars are quasi linearly polarized
