Fatigue Damage Detection in Steels by Optical Correlation

Abstract

This study investigated the use of optical correlation (holography) as a tool for the detection of surface changes, including those induced by fatigue, and its applicability for the nondestructive evaluation of strain and fatigue damage, and the prediction of impending failure in structural alloys.
