POISSONS RATIO
ES 13 GPVentura
POISSONS RATIO
within the elastic range, the ratio of the strains along the
lateral and longitudinal direction of a member under axial
load is constant

EXAMPLE 4.1
A 500-mm long, 16-mm
diameter rod made of a
homogenous, isotropic
material is observed to
increase in length by 300 m,
and to decrease in diameter
by 2.4 m when subjected to
an axial 12-kN load.

ALLOWABLE STRESS AND FACTOR OF SAFETY
FAILURE: state or condition in which a member or
structure no longer functions as intended
Some Types of Failure:
1. Elastic failure: excessive elastic deformation
2. Slip failure: excessive plastic deformation due to slip
The number of loadings that may be expected during the life of the structure or
machine.
The type of loadings that are planned for in the design, or that may occur in the
future.
