Photoelastic residual stress measurement in nonaxisymmetric glass containers

Residual stresses in axisymmetric glass containers are mostly measured with integrated photoelasticity. However, many containers, e.g. cosmetic bottles and bottles of expensive alcoholic drinks, often have a non-axisymmetric form. In this paper we consider residual stress measurement in such cont...

Description
Summary:Residual stresses in axisymmetric glass containers are mostly measured with integrated photoelasticity. However, many containers, e.g. cosmetic bottles and bottles of expensive alcoholic drinks, often have a non-axisymmetric form. In this paper we consider residual stress measurement in such containers with a modified integrated photoelasticity technique, with the scattered light method and with a simple method of surface stress measurement.
