Abstract
This thesis is a presentation of the photoelastic technique for stress analysis applied tc transmission shafting. Experimental effort was directed to devise a unique photoelastic sleeve which, when bonded to the reflective surface of a shaft, would provide a direct indication of shaft torque. A suitable stress-optic material molded to a working shaft makes this method useful for practical application. The writer wishes to express his appreciation for the assistance and encouragement given to him by Professor R. E. Newton of the United States Naval Postgraduate School.
