Direct view of stress distribution in solid by mechanoluminescence

Visualization of stress distribution has been realized by a nondestructive mechanoluminescence (ML) from SrAl2O4:Eu, which can emit three magnitudes higher visible light than that of well-known ML substance of quartz. A simulation result confirms that such a ML image successfully reflects the stress...

Zusammenfassung:Visualization of stress distribution has been realized by a nondestructive mechanoluminescence (ML) from SrAl2O4:Eu, which can emit three magnitudes higher visible light than that of well-known ML substance of quartz. A simulation result confirms that such a ML image successfully reflects the stress distribution. A kinetic model for ML of SrAl2O4:Eu is proposed.
