Abstract The development of means for producing small, separate, plane diffraction gratings as integral parts of the surfaces of flat metal specimens has led to modification of the method of Bell and to the investigation of strain fields by study of diffraction phenomena. Choice of a particular diffraction-strain relationship and the use of master gratings in conjunction with diffraction gratings to be used as strain gages permits use of simple optical instrumentation. The diffraction phenomena from multiple gages at the same orientation may be photographed simultaneously during loading for subsequent analysis, and instrumentation in the form employed permits resolving strain increments of magnitude 0.0008 in the range 0.0030 to 0.030.
