TLDR
A new full-field method for the automatic analysis of isochromatic fringes in white light, named RGB photoelasticity, which makes it possible to determine retardations uniquely in the range of 0–3 fringe orders.
Abstract
In this paper a new full-field method for the automatic analysis of isochromatic fringes in white light is presented. The method, named RGB photoelasticity, eliminates the typical drawbacks of the classical approach to photoelasticity in white light which requires a subjective analysis of colors and an experienced analyst to acquire and interpret the results.

On image analysis for Birefringence measurements in photoelasticity

TL;DR: A number of techniques have been proposed during the past twenty years that have the common purpose of automating photoelastic fringe analysis, including spectral contents analysis, phase-shifting or stepping and Fourier transform procedures, and all of the analytical methods suffer similar disadvantages.

RGB photoelasticity applied to the analysis of membrane residual stress in glass

TL;DR: In this paper, the determination of membrane residual stresses in glass plates by automatic digital photoelasticity in white light (RGB photo elasticity) has been proposed, which can effectively replace manual methods based on white light, which are currently provided by some technical standards.

Photoelastic Analysis with a Single Tricolor Image

TL;DR: It is emphasized that this method can be applicable to time varying phenomena in which good repeatability and reproducibility of experiments are not expected, since multiple exposures are not necessary for sufficient data acquisition in the completion of stress analysis.

Absolute determination of the isochromatic parameter by loadstepping photoelasticity

TL;DR: In this article, a new approach to full-field automated photoelasticity is presented in which a circular polariscope is used to enable the isochromatic phase value (α) to be determined unambiguously and without input of a known isochrome value obtained using an auxiliary technique.
