Conclusions

1. The techniques developed and the method of deciphering the experimental data permit investigating various practical dynamic problems by the photoelastic method.

2. On the basis of the pile driving problem, we show the practical possibility of modelling an impact, and we obtain all the necessary scales for modelling, which may be utilized for application in other experimental methods.

3. The experimentally obtained graphs of dissipation for propagation of an impulse due to impact on a pile, as well as the value of the coefficient of shielding of a Joint, may be utilized in the engineering practice.
