| Description | A method for the x-ray inspection of materials making use of the Moire effect is described. The Moire effect results when two patterns are superimposed, a third pattern is produced. Any change in either of the first two patterns creates a change in the third. Moire inspection is common with visible light, this invention allows the technique to be extended to locations inaccessible to visual inspection. A first pattern of high radio contrast material is attached to or included in the sample. X-rays are projected through the sample. A second pattern is imposed at the observation point, either before or after the formation of the x-ray image. The two patterns interact to create a third, Moire, pattern. As the material is stressed the Moire pattern changes, the degree of change indicating the degree of stress. |
