Max Mark Frocht was an educator and researcher in experimental mechanics. He was an authority on photoelasticity, a method used to visualize stress distribution in materials. Photoelastic methods are used in engineering for the observation of stress on structures and machine parts. Frocht's two-volume work, Photoelasticity, is a classic text in the field. A student of Steven Timoshenko, Frocht received his Ph.D. from University of Michigan in 1931. He worked at the Carne...
