Abstract
A digital speckle pattern interferometer with optical fibres is propos ed for composite materials diagnostics in an operative environment. De tection of a variety of flaws, such as disbonds, delaminations and cra cks in aircraft components, is reported. Additional fringes are introd uced for linearizing the fringe pattern and obtaining quantitative def ormation measurements by Fourier transform analysis.
