Non-contact Deflection Measurement at High Speed
نویسنده
چکیده
ABSTRACT: Traditional stationary or low speed deflection measurements become problematic on roads with high traffic densities. Traffic safety is decreased when survey vehicles like low speed deflectographs or stationary falling weight devices carry out measurements on highway networks. This paper describes how the Greenwood High Speed Deflectograph applies Laser Doppler Technology to provide information about pavement response to traffic load. The information obtained is the deflection velocity, the vertical velocity of the pavement surface due to a wheel load. The results from the tests show that the High Speed Deflectograph provides repeatable data comparable to similar information obtained with the Falling Weight Deflectometer.

متن کاملHigh-speed atomic force microscopy in slow motion--understanding cantilever behaviour at high scan velocities.
Using scanning laser Doppler vibrometer we have identified sources of noise in contact mode high-speed atomic force microscope images and the cantilever dynamics that cause them. By analysing reconstructed animations of the entire cantilever passing over various surfaces, we identified higher eigenmode oscillations along the cantilever as the cause of the image artefacts. We demonstrate that t...

Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) has provided deep insights into the local electronic, ionic and electrochemical functionalities in a broad range of materials and devices. In classical KPFM, which utilizes heterodyne detection and closed loop bias feedback, the cantilever response is down-sampled to a single measurement of the contact potential difference (CPD) per pixel. This level of deta...
