I Gmin is the minimum green light intensity between all pixels
of N 2 , I G max the maximum green light intensity between all pixels of
N 3 , and M G = 538 nm the green light wavelength. We consider F a
collection of images ( F i with i
and with same dimensions than
N 1 ) where photoelastic effect is visible. To calculate retardation
Re ( x , y ) in pixel ( x , y ) of F i we used Eq. (6.7) where I G ( x , y ) is the intensity
of green registered at pixel ( x , y ) of F i . We obtain optical path length
D ( x , y ) from pixel ( x , y ) of N 1 (for photoelastic coeficient calibration,
refer to Chapter 4) and using Eq. 6.8, we calculate the magnitude of
principal stress component ( T 1 - T 2 ) ( x , y ) in pixel ( x , y ) of F i .
