An understanding of a material's microscopic architecture is important to improve its mechanical properties. Poisson's ratio, which celebrates its bicentenary this year, continues to provide a good ...

When stretching an adhesive specimen along a longitudinal direction, it has a tendency to thin in a lateral direction. Measuring the relationship between how thin a material becomes during stretching ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Poisson's ratio describes the fundamental elasticity of any solid. Conventional materials contract laterally when stretched and Poisson's ratio expresses the ratio of transverse ...

In this video I take a detailed look at Poisson's ratio, a really important material property which helps describe how a material will deform under loading. Novak Djokovic makes two-word admission ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Expressions are given for the maximum and minimum values of Poisson's ratio ν for materials with cubic symmetry. Values less than -1 occur if ...
