Acta Mechanica Sinica Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The paper presents and discusses theoretical bases and methodology of development of two- and three-dimensional analytical and optical isodynes. Attention is given to the theoretical admissibility of the major components of the physical and mathematical models which are taken as the theoretical basis of the isodynes, and of the related analytical and experimental procedures of stress analysis. Efficiency and reliability of the nondestructive isodyne stress analysis are discussed.
