A method of digital image processing thechnique, which can multiply and sharpen isochromatic fringes in photoelasticity on both occasions, is developed. To test the method, photoelastic fringe patterns of a disk compressed by two diametrically opposite cocentrated loads are simulated and these patterns are processed to yield sharpened lines. The method is then aplied to measurement of residual stresses in glass bar. The procedure is proved to be capable of extraction sharpened lines accurately from photoelastic multiplied fringes, and yields good experimental results consistently and precisely.

Risidual stress of cylindrical glass rods are measured by photoelasticity to study the variation of stresses with respect to heat treatment temperatures. In order to measure the stresses accurately, fringe sharpening and multiplication techniques are applied to the determination of photoelastic fringe orders. Filon's separationmethod is used to resolve circumferential and redial stress ocmponents from isochromatic fringes which are the same as in-plane maximum shearing stresses. According to the photoelastic measurements, residual stress is increased as the heat treatment temperature of the rods is raised from $560^{\circ}C$ to $650^{\circ}C$ All the circumferential stress components are changed from tensile stresses to compressive ones at approximate $R_m$/$R_o$ = 0.6, where $R_o$/ is outer radius and $R_m$any measured radius. This analysis shows that residual stresses of the glass rods approach zero if the rods are heat-treated near the strain point.
