Abstract
A modified casting method is described for forming replicas of deformed moiré grids for subsequent fringe multiplication. The technique, which is believed to be simpler, faster and more convenient than previous procedures, is demonstrated by application to a fiber-reinforced interlaminar shear-strength specimen.
