Abstract

An optical fiber Doppler velocimeter using a 3 × 3 coupler with a large path imbalance Mach-Zehnder interferometer for passive demodulation of Doppler wavelength shifts is demonstrated. The particle velocity on the free surface end of the Hopkinson bar is directly obtained using the all-fiber Doppler velocimeter. These data show good agreement with the particle velocity predicted using strain gage data combined with one-dimensional stress wave propagation theory.
