Poisson Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Poisson's Ratio = Lateral Strain/Longitudinal Strain
𝛎 = Sd/ε_l
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Poisson's Ratio - Poisson's Ratio is defined as the ratio of the lateral and axial strain. For many metals and alloys, values of Poisson’s ratio range between 0.1 and 0.5.
Lateral Strain - Lateral Strain is ratio of change in diameter to original diameter.
Longitudinal Strain - The Longitudinal Strain is ratio of change in length to original length.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Lateral Strain: 0.6 --> No Conversion Required

Poisson's Ratio = Lateral Strain/Longitudinal Strain
𝛎 = Sd/ε_l

Poisson's ratio

It is a measure of the effect that causes the deformation of a material in directions perpendicular to the specific direction of loading.

Poisson’s ratio values for different material

It is the ratio of transverse contraction strain to longitudinal extension strain, in the direction of the stretching force. There can be a stress and strain relation that is generated with the application of force on a body-
For tensile deformation, Poisson’s ratio is positive.
For compressive deformation, it is negative.

How to Calculate Poisson Ratio?

Poisson Ratio calculator uses Poisson's Ratio = Lateral Strain/Longitudinal Strain to calculate the Poisson's Ratio, poisson ratio is an effect that describes the deformation of an object or material under a specific load. Poisson's Ratio is denoted by 𝛎 symbol.

FAQ

What is Poisson Ratio?

poisson ratio is an effect that describes the deformation of an object or material under a specific load and is represented as 𝛎 = Sd/ε_l or Poisson's Ratio = Lateral Strain/Longitudinal Strain. Lateral Strain is ratio of change in diameter to original diameter & The Longitudinal Strain is ratio of change in length to original length.

How to calculate Poisson Ratio?

poisson ratio is an effect that describes the deformation of an object or material under a specific load is calculated using Poisson's Ratio = Lateral Strain/Longitudinal Strain. To calculate Poisson Ratio, you need Lateral Strain (Sd) & Longitudinal Strain (ε_l). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Lateral Strain & Longitudinal Strain and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
