It is very suitable for the introduction and study of photoelasticity: optical elements, isochromatic, isoclinic, band order, band factor, edge tensionsing, and for strain and stress analysis and measurement with strain gauges.
Unit for photoelasticity practices, illustrating the subjects of the Photoelasticity theory, the Elasticity theory, Strength of Materials, and Structure theory.
Using this unit photoelastic experiments and practices of transparent test specimens (models) may be performed.
With the aid of the system it is possible to analyze and process the captured data during test experiments, making measurements with strain gauges.
These specimens show a full color and high contrast results and are also made of a special very hard material that avoids breaking during daily use.
