Research abstract

Not Available Hypersonic testing conducted at Holloman AFB has created an extremely high demand for precise rail alignment. Currently, a commercial laser tracker is used that can produce very accurate rail measurements, but requires several days to measure the entire track. A measurement system is proposed that incorporates innovative methods of measuring one point on the rail relative to a second, located 26 to 52 inches further down the track with an accuracy of ¿0.001 inches. A diffractive grating is utilized to produce two beams that are subsequently recombined in a manner that allows rotational errors of less than a microradian to be detected and thereby eliminated from the measurement. Cumulative errors over multiple measurements points are corrected by an imaging system that is periodically used to reference the rail-to-rail measurements back to the DMA (Defense Mapping Agency) benchmarks located along the track. Even without referencing to these benchmarks, the resulting system will produce automated measurements along the entire track of lateral and vertical deviations with an accuracy of ¿0.01 inches for any 400-foot section, or ¿0.110 inches along the entire 50,000 feet of track. Using the benchmarks, the cumulative error in this measurement will never exceed the ¿0.01 inch Air Force Specification.
