A Review of Laser Doppler Vibrometry for Structural Health Monitoring Applications

Abstract: Non-contact optical/laser measuring techniques are very attractive in many engineering applications. The paper demonstrates examples related to structural health monitoring. Various methods based on strain, vibration and ultrasound measurements are presented together with relevant references. Applications examples utilise in-plane and out-of-plane measurements taken by 1-D and 3-D laser Doppler vibrometers.

“…By knowing the distribution of the vibration velocity, the vibration frequency can be calculated. The use of interferometry (e.g., Michelson interferometer) allows detecting the Doppler frequency shift, which correlates with the speed and frequency of vibrations [ 47 ]. In practice, in the beam splitter, a laser beam reflected from the examined object is applied to the control beam.…”

“…Hence, measurement is limited to only several points on a structure. A laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV), another direct measurement method, can provide high-resolution noncontact displacement data [3,4] but is cost-inefficient and restricted to measuring displacement in the direction of the emitted laser.…”

“…More specifically, engineers have developed noncontact SHM, such as Global Positioning Systems (GPSs) [19,20]; however, current affordable GPSs do not provide sufficiently accurate measurements for SHM purposes. Similarly, engineers have used Laser Doppler Vibrometer (LDV) [21] and vision-based SHM, based on both stationary cameras and Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) [22,23,24], but the applicability of these approaches is limited because LDVs are cost-prohibitive, whereas the vision-based SHM systems that operate on stationary cameras require appropriate locations for camera deployment, within the correct line-of-sight of civil structures, such as bridges. Furthermore, although UASs are not restricted by considerations related to the camera placement, they only provide displacements of structure that are relative to the camera motion [25,26].…”
