Abstract

This paper presents use of conventional photoelastic techniques under unconventional loading situations to evaluate their efficacy in sensing applications. The loading is unconventional in the sense that low modulus photoelastic material is deformed under vertical load in the direction of light travel to induce the photoelastic effect. This is atypical of conventional methods where loading is across the light travel. Both RGB calibration and phase shining techniques have been used to study the characteristics of fringe patterns obtained under vertical and shear loads. The results obtained under these conditions are discussed with their limitations specially when this is applied for sensing applications. Finally a case study has been conducted to analyze the foot image and conclusions drawn from this have been presented. Copyright © 2007 by ASME.
