Determination of stress profiles in optical-fibre preforms

A computational technique is presented for the nondestructive determination of the radial, axial and tangential stress profiles in optical-fibre preforms. Optical retardation which arises as a consequence of the photoelastic effect is the basis for the technique. The stress profiles are obtained by...
