TL;DR: This review thematically classifies all the developments in digital photoelasticity and highlights the relative merits and drawbacks of the various techniques to allow an end-user to make an informed choice on the type of technique to be used in a particular situation.
Abstract: Digital photoelasticity has rapidly progressed in the last few years and has matured into an industry-friendly technique. This review thematically classifies all the developments in digital photoelasticity and highlights the relative merits and drawbacks of the various techniques. The overall objective is to provide enough information and guidance to allow an end-user to make an informed choice on the type of technique to be used in a particular situation.

TL;DR: In this article, a new adaptive smoothing algorithm is proposed to remove the noise due to isochromatic-isoclinic interaction that automatically takes care of the isotropic points and π jumps present in the ISO phasemap.
Abstract: In digital photoelasticity, one gets whole field information of isoclinic and isochromatic parameters based on intensity processing. Isoclinic values are undefined at isochromatic fringe contours and this appears as noise in the isoclinic phasemap which affects stress separation adversely. A new adaptive smoothing algorithm to remove the noise due to isochromatic-isoclinic interaction that automatically takes care of the isotropic points and π jumps present in the isoclinic phasemap is proposed. It is validated for the benchmark problem of a ring under diametral compression and verified for an angled bracket.

TL;DR: In this paper, stress frozen 3D models are sliced mechanically and the whole field principal stress differences (Isochromatics) and principal stress directions (Isoclinics) are evaluated by capturing only five images using the standard optical arrangements of a conventional polariscope.
Abstract: Digital photoelasticity is a whole field experimental technique which can analyze both 2-D and 3-D models. In this paper, stress frozen 3-D models are sliced mechanically and the whole field principal stress differences (Isochromatics) and principal stress directions (Isoclinics) are evaluated by capturing only five images using the standard optical arrangements of a conventional polariscope. The wrapped isoclinic values obtained by processing the first four colour polarization stepped images in the range -π/4 to +π/4 are unwrapped using adaptive quality guided phase unwrapping algorithm to get isoclinics in the range of -π/2 to +π/2. The total fringe order is evaluated by three fringe photoelasticity or RGB photoelasticity with its latest developments like colour adaptation combined with refined three fringe photoelasticity. The methodology is validated for two slices cut from aero-structural components.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used 3D printed models based on X-ray microfocus computed tomography (CT) imaging of a concrete sample to replicate its complex aggregate structure in a transparent matrix, and the associated three-dimensional stress field is visually characterized at mesoscale through uniaxial compression tests and photoelastic techniques that incorporate a threedimensional frozen-stress test to analyse the effects of randomly distributed aggregates.
