Question:

On examining a piece of stressed photoelastic material between crossed linear polarizers, we would see a set of colored bands (isochromatics) and, superimposed on these, a set of dark bands (isoclinics). How might we remove the isoclinics, leaving only the isochromatics? Explain your solution. Incidentally, the proper arrangement is independent of the orientation of the photoelastic sample.
