Abstract: | In this paper, a new experimental, computercontrolled, stress-analysis technique (SPATE) based on the measurement of infrared
emissions from the surface of a cyclically loaded body, has been used to study the stress distributions in rectangular steel
plates and circular rings under cyclic in-plane loading. A typical test procedure for quantitative stress measurement is described.
The effects of surface obliquity and the thickness of the paint coating applied to the specimen surface on the received signal
are described and discussed. Results are given for three series of test specimens and compared quantitatively with relevant
theoretical solutions. Attention is drawn to the changes in the received signal as the applied load range increases beyond
the elastic limit of the material. A new application of the technique to the determination of the stress-intensity factor
in acracked body is also illustrated.
