Influence Of In-Plane Displacement And Double-Aperture Orientation On Slope Fringe Formation In Double-Shearing-Aperture Speckle Interferometry, K F. Wang, A Kiet Tieu, Enbang Li
Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A
The influence of the in-plane displacement and double-aperture orientation on the slope fringe formation in double-shearing-aperture speckle interferometry is discussed in detail. The research results show that the two in-plane displacement components, one parallel to and the other perpendicular to the shearing direction, have an influence on the slope fringe formation and that the double-aperture orientation also has an important influence on the slope fringe formation. A theoretical analysis and experimental results are presented. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical analysis.

Over the last few decades there has been an increasing awareness of landslide hazard and risk in many coastal regions of Australia. Urban communities in hilly areas are, from time to time, adversely affected by rainfall-induced landsliding. However, acute awareness of hazard may be absent during periods between significant rainstorm events. In general, the serious consequences of landslides to property and life have been underestimated in Australia. It is now known that at least 80 deaths can be attributed to a number of landslides (Leiba, 1998). Some of these events have focussed the attention of the public, the most important …
