Sensitivity is a key parameter for using NDT technology. Determining what factors affect the sensitivity of NDT and establishing the model to facilitate engineers to select the appropriate system parameters and the loading magnitude are very important in the practical applications. In the past decade, Digital shearography has been widely used as a NDT tool for detecting delaminations and debonding defects in various composite materials, such as glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP), carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), Honeycomb structures, etc. Digital shearography is a laser interferometric technique and able to measure the first derivatives of deformation, i.e. strain information. It is suited well for NDT because defects generate strain concentration after a loading. As an NDT method, the sensitivity of digital shearography is an important parameter to measure the technology's defect detection capabilities. However, due to various limitations, the sensitivity research of digital shearography is still in its infancy. First, this technique lacks a numerical model to offer a theoretical foundation for determining the minimum detectable delamination/debonding limits and the detectable depth of defects. Secondly, because a shearogram is a fringe pattern which is composed of both global deformation and defect information. smaller defect information is easily lost in the fringe patterns from global deformation. This research conducts in-depth study around determining the sensitivity of digital shearography and improving the defect visibility to meet the practical needs of helping engineers quickly select loads and quickly identify defects.To solve these problems, the main research work and innovation results are as follows:(1) In response to the first problem, this research presents a methodology of digital shearography for determining the size of the smallest detectable defect and its depth under various loading magnitudes for the purpose of nondestructive testing. First, a mechanical model based on the thin plate theory to calculate the expected bending of close-to-surface defects was proposed; the model built a relationship among the deformation caused by a defect, the size and the depth of the defect, as well as the load and the material properties. Second, the relationship between the relative deformation measured by shearography and the deformation induced by a defect was established based on the optimized shearing amount and the sensitivity of digital shearography. Based on these analyses, relationships between the size of the smallest detectable defect and the depth under different load amounts were established for different defect shapes.(2) A demonstration of the sensitivity limit of digital shearography is shown on the basis of the sensitivity model, and the search for strategies to improve digital shearography is undertaken. After research, while keeping the equipment consistent, the material unchanged, and the loading conditions the same, the best way to improve the sensitivity of digital shearography is to increase the contrast between defect information and background information. This method can make defects information clearer. Based on that, the second purpose was to examine methods for improving sensitivity found in previous studies and to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of all methods and developed the segment fitting method. According to the previous discussion, it can be found that the most common method is to make a fitting plane to represent the global deformation by unwrapping fringe pattern to build the continuous shearogram, and then subtracting the plane to increase the contrast. Secondly, the continuous shearogram of complex deformations makes it challenging to choose the fitting equation. Based on this, a piecewise fitting method is proposed. This method is based on the conventional fitting method, which is fitted based on the phase change between each fringes on the shearogram. Because the phase values between each fringe are linearly distributed, this method does need to consider the fitting equation selection. The new planes then need to be subtracted from the original image to remove the global deformation, thus preserving the defect.(3) The second innovation of this research is the development of a practical and effective method to experimentally removes fringe patterns caused by the global deformation that makes small defects directly visible, which improves the non-destructive testing capabilities of digital shearography, thereby simplifying defect detection and visualization. For shearographic Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), the phase distributions of two interferogram under different loads P1 and P2 are recorded. This novel approach involves recording one additional phase distribution of an interferogram at a load between P1 and P2, e.g. P1'. Two phase maps of shearograms can be generated, corresponding to the two loads Δ2 = (P1'-P1) and Δ1 = (P2-P1), respectively. Because of the nondestructive nature of the testing, the magnitude of the loads P1 and P2 is small, and the 1st derivative of global deformation of the test part is assumed to be linear. Therefore, a linear coefficient C based on the two shearograms can be determined. The information from global deformation is then removed by subtracting the shearogram generated with the small load Δ2 multiplied by the correlation coefficient C from the one obtained with the relatively large load Δ1. This technique is further improved by calculating a complete surface linear coefficient Cij, which improves the detail processing of the deformation of samples with complex geometry and mechanical properties.Experimental verification was conducted based on specimens with prefabricated defects of different sizes and different loading conditions to verify the proposed mathematical model and experimental methods to eliminate global deformation. Experimental results show that the developed model can provide useful estimates for digital shearography NDT, and in particular can help test engineers estimate the size of the smallest detectable defect and the depth of the defect under corresponding load magnitude. Also, the experimental coefficient method can effectively evaluate a variety of structures and also be verified to remove global deformation, which improves defect detection capabilities and increases visualization of the digital shearography.
