Abstract
THE interesting experiments of Prof. E. G. Coker on the application of optical methods to technical problems of stress distribution have been described in an article in NATURE of December 5, 1912. This article suggests that this would be an opportune moment to publish, outside of Italy, the results of researches which Sig. Trabacchi and I undertook some years ago for a similar purpose (Rend. Lincei, vol. xviii., 1909). There is this essential difference from Prof. Coker's experiments, that our object at that time was the experimental verification of precise calculations deduced from Volterra's theory of elastic “distortions” (Ann. de l'Ecole Normale de Paris, 1907).
