Abstract
In order to find out the suitability of different photoelectric sensors for possible use in static and dynamic photoelasticity, the performance characteristics of these sensors were first evaluated using the polarisers as variable attenuators. The selected sensors and signal conditioners were then used in measurements involving static photoelasticity and the authors describe how these measurements can be used to eliminate operator errors from photoelastic data. This paper further explains the use of light intensity sensors for acquiring data in dynamic photoelasticity, thus making this versatile technique within the reach of laboratories with basic minimum facilities. It also introduces a new technique to count the fringes in an optically nondiscriminatory, dynamic photoelastic oscillogram.
