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 (iso-clinics). 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.
