A system and method for non-destructive detection of cracks of different width and depths based on digital speckle interferometry coupled with pulsed laser excitation is introduced and tested. Based on photoacoustic effect, acoustic waves are induced onto the rear of the samples by pumping a pulsed laser beam on it. The generated mechanical wave propagates from the rear surface of the sample to the front while front surface is monitored by speckle interferometry. In order to acquire information about surface deformation, the front surface is illuminated by continuous wave laser and interference are imaged onto the camera as speckle images. After processing the produced fringe patterns, it indicates the presence and location of the cracks in qualitative way. In this study, the system and method mentioned above are validated by detecting medium density fiberboard with simulated cracks. The fringe patterns from areas with or without defects are compared and discussed. Besides, the system and method to distinguish and predict cracks sizes is proposed and validated.
