Development of System for Simultaneous Measurement of Stress and Temperature
A system was developed for simultaneously measuring stress and temperature in structures in time series. The stress and temperature were measured using the photoelastic technique in the form of phase stepping and the thermographic technique, respectively. Four phase-stepped photoelastic images were captured simultaneously using beam-splitting optics. A beam splitter was used for transmitting light in the visible range while simultaneously reflecting light in the infrared range. The system was applied to ultraviolet curing resin with a step part illuminated with ultraviolet rays, and the stress and temperature in the curing process were measured. Results showed that the stress and temperature in the curing process can be measured simultaneously in time series using the system. The step part of the resin affected the distribution of the stress and temperature
