TLDR
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.
