Poisson's ratio is an important material property that describes how materials deform when subjected to stress. When a material is stretched in one direction, it tends to contract in the perpendicular ...

Negative Poisson’s ratio If the Poisson’s ratio of the material if positive, then tensile/compressive strains in the x-direction produce tensile/compressive strains in the y- and z-directions, just ...

In a paper published in National Science Review, a Chinese team of scientists present a generic strategy to alter the Poisson’s ratio of elastomer membranes. They develop flexible sensors based ...

The Poisson’s ratio measures the length and width of a material undergoing transformation as it is stretched in a longitudinal direction. Application of the ISO 527-2 test standard helps ...
