Abstract Information is given to enable the experimental analysis of large deformations by application of photoelastic techniques. Promising photoelastic materials having low elastic modulus and high optical sensitivity were obtained for practical use at room temperature. The time and temperature dependence of the stress-fringe order and stress-strain relations of one of these viscoelastic materials is discussed. Photoelastic investigations of large deflected straight and circular beams are reported. Photoelastic technique seems to be a useful method for analysis of large deformations of models with complicated shapes.
