Abstract
This chapter introduces the fundamental principles of experimental techniques of stress measurement and analysis, together with limited details of the principles of application. The role of experimental techniques in comparison with the theoretical procedures and the relative merits of each technique are also presented in the chapter. Over the past few years, these experimental stress analysis or strain measurement techniques have served an increasingly important role in aiding designers to produce not only efficient but economic designs. In some cases, substantial reductions in weight and easier manufacturing processes have been achieved. The chapter discusses the main techniques of experimental stress analysis, such as brittle lacquers, strain gauges, photoelasticity, and photoelastic coatings, which currently are in use.
