Application of Sharafutdinov's Ray Transform in Integrated Photoelasticity

open access: yes, 2003
We explain the main concepts centered around Sharafutdinov's ray transform, its kernel, and the extent to which it can be inverted. It is shown how the ray transform emerges naturally in any attempt to reconstruct optical and stress tensors within a ...

Recent Milestones in Unraveling the Full-Field Structure of Dynamic Shear Cracks and Fault Ruptures in Real-Time: From Photoelasticity to Ultrahigh-Speed Digital Image Correlation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The last few decades have seen great achievements in dynamic fracture mechanics. Yet, it was not possible to experimentally quantify the full-field behavior of dynamic fractures, until very recently.

Chiral Acoustic Phonon and Conservation of Pseudoangular Momentum in α‐Quartz

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Chiral acoustic phonons in α‐quartz are probed via Brillouin light scattering, exploiting the photon's helicity and the crystal's handedness. The interaction obeys a selection rule arising from pseudoangular momentum conservation, enabling direct optical access to phonon chirality in nonsymmorphic crystals.

Tactile whole-field imaging sensor on photoelasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The paper describes a whole-field imaging sensor developed on the principles of photoelasticity. The sensor produces colored fringe patterns when load is applied on the contacting surface.

Photoelasticity of sodium silicate glass from first principles

open access: yes, 2004
Based on density-functional perturbation theory we have computed the photoelastic tensor of a model of sodium silicate glass of composition (Na$_2$O)$_{0.25}$(SiO$_2$)$_{0.75}$ (NS3).

Crack paths under mixed mode loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Long fatigue cracks that initially experience mixed mode displacements usually change direction in response to cyclic elastic stresses. Eventually the cracks tend to orient themselves into a pure mode I condition, but the path that they take can be ...

Fiber Bragg Gratings with Micro‐Engineered Temperature Coefficients

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 13, Issue 8, March 13, 2025.
Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are intrinsically responsive to temperature and strain simultaneously. In this research, low‐loss FBGs with micro‐engineered temperature coefficients are fabricated, utilizing refractive index liquid‐filled microchannels in the cladding.

Photoelasticity as a Tool for Stress Analysis of Re-Entrant Auxetic Structures

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The presented study illustrates the use of photoelasticity as an effective tool for validating the results of finite element method (FEM) simulations of auxetic structures.

Development of a Mobile Device for the Evaluation of the Current in Situ Stress Condition in Glass

open access: yesChallenging Glass Conference Proceedings, 2018
In present-day practice, monitoring the installation process and the utilisation of glass and hybrid components, e.g. glass/steel or glass/plastic, has become increasingly important. To date, the quality control options for built-in glass is limited.

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...
