ABSTRACT
In the current paper the photoelastic measurement technique is combined with digital image correlation in order to obtain a stress and strain field of the soil near the displacement pile.
2 STRESS MEASUREMENTS
Whilst photoelasticity has been used extensively to quantify stresses in homogeneous materials (e.g. Coker & Filon 1930; Dally & Riley 1991), the technique is not widely applied as an analogon in granular materials.
