Understanding Poisson's Ratio and Restrained Cylinders - Physics …
Apr 2, 2010 · Steel has a Poisson's ratio of roughly 0.33. The cylinder is restrained in the vertical direction so no displacement can occur. If I apply an internal pressure to the cylinder, it is going to expand laterally, but it can't in the vertical direction because it is restrained.
Rate of change of volume and poisson's ratio - Physics Forums
Oct 26, 2009 · and Poisson's ratio . The block of material is subjected to axial deformation along the c dimension. 1. Derive an expression for the relative change in volume, change in V/ V , in term of Poisson's ratio. 2. Make a plot of the relative change in volume, change inV/ V , as a function of Poisson's ratio varying from 0 to 0.5.
Poisson's ratio, steel rod for example - Physics Forums
Jun 24, 2017 · Steel has a "Poisson ratio" μ of 0.29 (in my book of problems at least). Am I understanding the meaning of this ratio correctly: if a steel cylinder is stretched along its symmetry axis by a factor p (something like 1.01 or 0.99) then the radius will change by a …
Understanding Poisson's Ratio and Its Effects - Physics Forums
Dec 31, 2019 · Hi everybody, Poisson's ratio determine that when applying force in one direction (let say z direction) it would cause a relative major strain at that direction, and also two additional strains at the two other directions (x & y). My question …
Water Poisson Ratio: What & How? - Physics Forums
Oct 18, 2011 · Poisson's ratio can be calculated if you know the bulk modulus K and the shear modulus G of the material. In water, is one of these much greater than the other? In water, is one of these much greater than the other?
Bulk modulus and poisson's ratio - Physics Forums
Mar 31, 2009 · Homework Statement derive the equation for the bulk modulus, K = E/3(1 - 2v), where v is poisson's ratio. Homework Equations E = stress/e, whe
Calculating Poisson's Ratio and Modulus of Elasticity for a Solid …
Oct 28, 2005 · A circular cross section tie rod located in a structure has a diameter of 140mm and a length of 4.0m. If under load the length increases by 1.2mm and the diameter decreses by 0.11mm, identify the relationship between lateral and transverse strain and determine the value of poisson's ratio. I have no idea how to go about completing this one.
Understanding Poisson's Ratio Limits - Physics Forums
Oct 24, 2004 · I'm doing A2 course work on properties of materials and have been looking at Youngs modulus, Bulk modulus, Poissons ratio and Shear stress strain etc. Was wondering if any kind person would be able to explain why Poissons ratio has theoretical limits of -1 to 0.5? Have tried to search on the web but am confused by the answers I find!
Calculating Poisson's Ratio: Step-by-Step Guide - Physics Forums
Aug 5, 2005 · Poisson's ratio is the lateral contraction per unit breadth divided by the longitudinal extension per unit length. But A is proportional to the square of the length, i.e. a square has area, A = l 2 , where l is side length, or a circle has area [itex]\pi[/itex]r 2 , where r is radius.
