Abstract
An analysis is presented of the birefringence patterns observed in the walls of cylindrical glass objects when viewed tangentially in a matching index fluid. The patterns to be expected from a combination of parabolic and bending stresses, resulting from asymmetric cooling, are calculated. Experimentally measured patterns are shown to illustrate the theory. A simple method is presented whereby the stresses at the outside and inside surfaces of tempered ware can be calculated from the observed pattern.
