Stress Wave Truncation Experimental Research Based on Dynamic Photoelasticity

How to truncate stress wave is an important problem that must be considered in design of engineering structure. As an effective detection method of stress distribution, the dynamic photoelasticity has been wide used in stress analysis, such as detection of mechanical structure, civil engineering and water conservancy etc. In this paper, the stress wave isochromatic fringe at different interface structure has been obtained through vertical shooting experiment. The structural stress wave propagation rule of three kinds of case is studied by comparison fringe pattern. The experimental research results show that the stress wave propagation can be effectively guided to a fixed direction through installed connecting parts in structural connection position and the method can avoid integrity damage of structure caused by local large stress changes. Finally, the dynamic photoelasticity is an intuitive and effective way to study stress wave truncation problem.
