Definitions
photoelasticity
Noun
The property of certain transparent materials that exhibit different colors or patterns when subjected to mechanical stress and viewed under polarized light.
The engineers used photoelasticity to analyze the stress distribution in the bridge model.
A method of stress analysis that exploits this property by studying the color patterns produced in a model under polarized light.
Photoelasticity has become a fundamental tool in experimental mechanics.
