Análisis de esfuerzos mecánicos en prototipos de elementos planos con geometría compleja utilizando el método fotoelástico

Abstract

The objective of this project is to a¡:railze the distribution of stresses in prototypes of flat elements that have birefringence properties to then make a comparison with results obtained by computational techniques. This analysis was developed based on the photoelasticity, u,hich is based on the property that has diffraction light when striking on mechanicallv charged elements, by the other way the comparison of the results obtained by photoelasticity was made based on finite element, all with the pur¡rose of obtaining an experimental methodology that allows the development of experimental techniques in the field of mechanical design. This document is aimed at those professionals focuscd on the freld of mechanical design, since it shows an experimental methotlology that can validate or contrast the studies carried out in this field in order to optimize the design process.
