Abstract

Though a number of authors have reported the photoelastic behaviour of ADP, there are discrepancies in the literature with regard to its photoelastic constants. In the present study all the static and dynamic data have been obtained again by repeating the experiments and the most acceptable values of the stress-optical and strain-optical constants are calculated by the method of least squares. The results are discussed in the light of earlier studies.
