Which consequence results when compressive force exceeds critical threshold in photoelastic materials?

💡 Explanation

When exceeding the elastic limit the stresses cause increased chain alignment; therefore stress-induced birefringence becomes markedly stronger, because polarization direction is altered proportionally to applied force, rather than a negligible, linear optical modification.
