Dynamic Laser Speckle and Applications

Beginning with physical theory, statistical analysis, and applications, this book presents a systematic approach to new dynamic speckle laser phenomena. Theoretical topics include speckle, biospeckle, and simulation models for laser light interaction. Dynamic Laser Speckle and Applications discusses the main methodologies used to analyze biospeckle phenomena-such as image analysis, frequency decomposition, as well as neural and fuzzy methods-with a strong focus on experimentation. With examples of biological and non-biological materials, several chapters address current and future application areas. Photos of experiments further enhance understanding of the concepts in the text.
