Define poison Ratio?
Answers
Answer:
Poisson's ratio is a measure of the Poisson effect, that describes the expansion or contraction of a material in directions perpendicular to the direction of loading. The value of Poisson's ratio is the negative of the ratio of transverse strain to axial strain.

Explanation:
Poisson's ratio is the ratio of transverse contraction strain to longitudinal extension strain in the direction of stretching force. Tensile deformation is considered positive and compressive deformation is considered negative. The definition of Poisson's ratio contains a minus sign so that normal materials have a positive ratio. Poisson's ratio, also called Poisson ratio or the Poisson coefficient, or coefficient de Poisson, is usually represented as a lower case Greek nu, n.
