[N/D- 14, 16] The ratio of lateral strain to the longitudinal strain is a constant for a given material, when the material is stressed within the elastic limit. This ratio is called Poisson s ratio and it is generally denoted by 1/m (or) µ µ = 5. What is meant by Poinsson s ratio? Which material has the higher value of Poisson s ratio? [N/ D- 15 ] When a body is stressed, within its elastic limit, the ratio of lateral strain to the longitudinal strain is constant for a given material, which is known as Poisson s ratio. Poisson ratio (μ or 1/m) = Lateral strain / Longitudinal strain The shear stress is directly proportional to shear strain.
