A description is given of a technique incorporating a continuously rotating polarized field and a synchronously operated camera. Automatic and simultaneous recording of isoclinics and isochromatics enables the complete analysis of quasi-static photoelastic events of practically any duration. It obviates the need for repetition of tests and so facilitates the solution of problems which are not readily reproducible. This is demonstrated by considering the application to steady and dynamic photoelastic cutting.
