  2. Poisson's ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson's_ratio

    Poisson's ratio of a material defines the ratio of transverse strain (x direction) to the axial strain (y direction)In materials science and solid mechanics, Poisson's ratio (symbol: ν ()) is a measure of the Poisson effect, the deformation (expansion or contraction) of a material in directions perpendicular to the specific direction of loading.

  3. Flexural rigidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_rigidity

    = Poisson's Ratio. Flexural rigidity of a plate has units of Pa·m 3, i.e. one dimension of length less than the same property for the rod, as it refers to the moment per unit length per unit of curvature, and not the total moment. I is termed as moment of inertia. J is denoted as 2nd moment of inertia/polar moment of inertia.

  4. Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution (/ ˈ p w ɑː s ɒ n /; French pronunciation:) is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthotropic_material

    where is the Young's modulus along axis , is the shear modulus in direction on the plane whose normal is in direction , and is the Poisson's ratio that corresponds to a contraction in direction when an extension is applied in direction .

  6. Poisson regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_regression

    A Poisson regression model is sometimes known as a log-linear model, especially when used to model contingency tables. Negative binomial regression is a popular generalization of Poisson regression because it loosens the highly restrictive assumption that the variance is equal to the mean made by the Poisson model. The traditional negative ...

  9. Lateral strain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_strain

    Some materials, known as auxetics, possess a negative Poisson's ratio because of their unique molecular structure. Because of this property, they experience a positive lateral strain alongside a positive longitudinal strain, and vice versa.
