DescriptionBiodegradablePlasticUtensils2.jpg |
Knives, forks, and spoons made from a biodegradable starch-polyester material. The photo has been realized using the photoelasticity method, an experimental method which gets a fairly accurate picture of stress distribution even around abrupt discontinuities in a material.
The setup used to photograph this photo was probably composed of:
Light and camera being installed and oriented in the same direction, the two quarter-wave plates were turned with the polarizing axis in the same direction. |
