The title details the methods and techniques in strain analysis using the moiré fringe phenomenon. The text first covers the general theory, and then proceeds to tackling the moiré patterns. Next the selection deals with the applications of line gratings to two-dimensional strain measurement. The text also talks about surface topology by moiré patterns, along with the applications of moiré methods to dynamic problems and curved surfaces. The ninth chapter discusses moiré extensometers, while the tenth chapter tackles the precision and influence of grating defects. The remaining chapters detail the technological information on reproduction techniques of gratings and the evaluation of moiré methods. The book will be of great use to students, practitioners, and researchers of materials engineering and pure and applied mathematics.
