The photothermoelastic method of refrigeration has been used to study the problem of a long beam under transient temperature distribution and good correlation with the theoretical values has been obtained. The new technique for three-dimensional photothermoelasticity, which uses a composite model made of photoelastically sensitive and insensitive materials, is suggested for the analysis of idealized wing-rib structures.
