Diffraction effects in moiré deflectometry

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The bounds on the sensitivity and resolution of moiré deflectometry caused by diffraction effects are derived from the wave equation. It is shown that Fresnel diffraction is a necessary and sufficient framework for treating these effects. Expressions are given for angular resolution, spatial resolution, and dynamic range. The proper selection of experimental parameters involves a trade-off between the angular resolution on the one hand and spatial resolution and dynamic range on the other.
