Photoelasticity.

Photoelasticity is an experimental method to determine stress distribution in various engineering components.The method is mostly used in cases where mathematical methods become quite cumbersome (difficult). Photoelasticity is especially useful for the study of objects with irregular boundaries and stress concentrations, such as pieces of machinery with notches or curves, structural components with slits or holes, and materials with cracks.
