INTRODUCTION ________________________________________________________________________________________
A more complete understanding of deformation of a member subjected to
normal stress is frequently required in engineering design or operation, which
involves two or three-dimensional strains. In this lesson, we are going to
consider these subjects in a little more detail by determining the behaviour of
materials under complex loading conditions.
FIGURE 1 shows that one-dimensional stress can lead to three-dimensional
strain. The calculation of these strains uses a ratio first defined by Poisson.
Therefore, we start our study with the introduction of Poisson's ratio, then further
discussions on two and three-dimensional loading systems will be carried out.

POISSON'S RATIO ________________________________________________________________________________________
When a deformable body is subjected to an axial tensile force, not only does it
elongate but it also contracts laterally. For example, if a rubber band is
stretched, you will find that the thickness and width of the band are decreased.
On the contrary, when a rubber block is compressed due to a force acting in
one direction, its sides get bigger.
FIGURE 2 shows deformation of an object with a square cross-section under
tensile loading. When the load F is applied to it, the length of the object
changes by an amount ∆l = l – l0 and the width by ∆h = h – h0. Strains in the longitudinal or axial direction (εl) and the in the lateral or transverse direction (εt) can be presented, respectively, as

In the early 1800s, the French scientist S. D. Poisson realized that the
deformations ∆l and ∆h are proportional and the ratio of these strains εl and εt is a constant for a given solid material within its elastic limit. This constant is
referred to as Poisson's ratio ν and it has a numerical value that is unique for a homogeneous and isotropic material.
Thus, Poisson's ratio ν is defined as
The negative sign means that a longitudinal elongation (positive strain) always
accompanies a lateral contraction (negative strain), and vice versa.
It should be noted that:
• Poisson's ratio is a measure of the simultaneous change in elongation and
in cross-sectional area within the elastic range. During a tensile test,
when a material has the reduction in cross-sectional area and the
increment in length, as shown in FIGURE 2, it is said to have a positive
Poisson's ratio.
• The lateral strain is the same in all lateral directions and is caused only by
the axial or longitudinal force; i.e. no force or stress acts in a lateral
direction in order to strain the material in this direction.
• Virtually all common materials become narrower in cross-section when
they are stretched. The reason why, in the continuum view, is that most
materials resist a change in volume as determined by the bulk modulus K
more than they resist a change in shape, as determined by the shear
modulus G. For example, as mentioned in the last lesson, Ksteel = 160 GPa,
but Gsteel = 75 – 83 GPa.

Poisson's ratio is seen to be dimensionless. For a perfectly incompressible
material, the Poisson's ratio would be exactly 0.5 and rubber is close to 0.5. In
particular, an ideal material having no lateral movement when it is stretched or
compressed will have ν = 0 and cork is close to 0. Most practical engineering materials have ν between 0 and 0.5. Typical values of Poisson's ratio for common engineering materials are listed in TABLE 1.
TABLE 1 Typical values of ν for some engineering materials
By special design, some materials or structures, mostly polymer foams, can
have a negative Poisson's ratio; if these auxetic materials are stretched in one
direction, they become thicker in perpendicular directions.

Example 1
A metal box with E = 200 GPa and ν = 0.32 has the dimensions shown in the diagram below. If an axial force F = 80 kN is applied to the bar,
determine the change in its length and the change in the dimensions of its
cross-section under this load. Assume the material behaves elastically.

The strain in the z-direction is:
Then, the deformation in the z-direction or axial elongation is:
Using equation (3) , we have that the contraction strains in
both the x and y-directions are:

Poisson's ratio is another way of stating the elasticity of a material. For most
applications it is not necessary to measure every modulus of elasticity as they
can all be calculated from E, the modulus in tension (or compression), using
the following relationships:
Hence G and K can be calculated with reasonable accuracy by incorporating
values of ν and E.

A specimen of titanium alloy is tested in torsion and the shear stress-strain
diagram is shown below.
Determine the shear modulus G, the proportional limit and the ultimate shear
stress. Also, determine the maximum distance d that the top of a block of this
material, shown in the figure below, could be displaced horizontally if the
material behaves elastically when acted upon by a shear force F. What is the
magnitude of F necessary to cause this displacement?

Solution
Shear modulus G represents the slope of the straight line portion OA of the
τ – γ curve. The coordinates of point A are (0.008 rad, 360 MPa). Thus
Remember, , then the proportional limit or the yield stress is
τy = 360 × 106 Pa = 360 MPa since the graph ceases to be linear at point A.
From our study in Lesson 1, we know that the ultimate shear stress τu is the value of τ at point B which represents the maximum shear stress. By inspection of the graph again, τu = 503 MPa = 503 × 106 Pa.
Since the maximum elastic shear strain is 0.008 rad, a very small angle γ will be displaced horizontally, which can be determined by

POISSON'S RATIO AND TWO-DIMENSIONAL LOADING ________________________________________________________________________________________
In a two-dimensional stress system, all the stresses lie within one plane, such
as the plane of this paper, the x – y plane. Now, we consider a flat plate, shown
in FIGURE 3, which is subjected to two-dimensional loading.

follows Hooke’s law:

In the xx direction, there are two strains:
• strain due to the stress σx along xx direction is
• strain due to the stress σy along xx direction is
Note that minus sign for compressive strain according our convention.
Therefore, the combined strain in xx direction is
Using a similar method, we have the combined strain in yy direction is

STRAINS IN THE x, y AND z DIRECTIONS
Based on our previous study, we can now extend the method used in the
analysis of two-dimensional loading to three-dimensional loading. In the x
direction, there are three strains:
• strain due to the stress σx along xx direction is
• strain due to the stress σy along xx direction is
• strain due to the stress σz along xx direction is

PRINCIPAL STRAINS IN TERMS OF STRESS
In general cases, stresses on a point in three-dimensions have 9 components
(only 6 of them are independent, for example, τxy = τyx) as shown in FIGURE 4. When the state of stress is represented by the principal stresses, no
shear stress will act on the element. Thus, the principal stresses represent the
maximum and minimum normal stress at the point.

When shear stress is in absence, the stresses σx, σy and σz on the faces of an object, shown in FIGURE 5, are in fact principal stresses. So the principal
strain in a given direction may be obtained from the principal stresses. For
principal stresses and strains the suffices x, y and z are replaced by 1, 2 and 3
respectively. Therefore, we may rewrite the above equations in terms of
principal stresses and strains as

VOLUMETRIC STRAIN
In the last lesson, the definition of volumetric strain or bulk strain was given as
Now, it can be shown that the volumetric strain equals the sum of the linear
strains in the x, y and z directions or
After substituting equations (16) to (18) into equation (22), we have
Rearranging the above equation, we get
Now we consider a special case: a circular cross-sectional bar subjected to a

FIG. 6 A circular cross-sectional bar subjected to a uniaxial stress
In this case, the only stress in the bar is a tensile stress along the axis of the
bar, then the stresses in the y and z directions are zero. Therefore, using
equation (24), we have
We also know that , then, the general equation for calculating the
volumetric strain of the circular cross-sectional bar is:
Example 4
A bar of circular cross-section is subject to a tensile load of 100 kN, which is
within the elastic range. The bar is made from a steel with E = 210 GPa and
Poisson's ratio = 0.3, it has a diameter of 25 mm and is 1.5 m long.
Determine the extension of the bar, the decrease in diameter and the increase in

SELF-ASSESSMENT QUESTIONS ________________________________________________________________________________________
1. An aluminium specimen shown in the figure below has a diameter of
d0 = 25 mm and a gauge length of l0 = 250 mm. If a force of 165 kN
elongates the gauge length by 1.20 mm, determine the modulus of
elasticity. Also, determine by how much the force causes the diameter of
the specimen to contract. Take Gal = 26 GPa and σy = 440 MPa.

Since σ < σy, then the material behaves elastically. Thus, the modulus of elasticity is:
Using equation (5) we have:
Using equation (3), , we can determine the transverse strain εt.
(The negative sign means that there is contraction on the cross-section of
the specimen.)
Therefore, the deformation of the diameter is
A contraction of 41.5 µm.

2. In order to find this relationship we need to remember one very important
fact, which is
Now, from the question, we have that the stresses in the x, y and z
directions are equal for a hydrostatic loading, thus:
Assumption: all surfaces of the pressure vessel are subject to equal
pressure (ignore the weight of the liquid contained in the vessel).
Therefore, the material has the same mechanical properties.
From equations (16) and (17) we have

Since ν ≠ 0, the only possibility for the above equation to be true is that σx = σy.
Similarly, solving equations (16) and (18), and (17) and (18), we have the
results as σx = σz and σy = σz.
Therefore, σz = σy = σz = σ.
Actually, σ is the stress caused by the pressure in vessel or σ = p.
From equation (24), the volumetric strain is
Since the bulk modulus

SUMMARY ________________________________________________________________________________________
In this lesson, the equations describing the relationships between stress and
strain in two and three-dimensional loading systems have been derived based
on the definitions of Poisson's ratio and modulus of elasticity, shear modulus
and bulk modulus. The examples given in this lesson show that these theories
play an important role in engineering design and operation.
In the first topic of this module, we have analysed the internal reactions of a
material within elastic limit under different loading systems. The relationships
between stress and strain have been discussed based on the definitions of
Poisson's ratio, modulus of elasticity, shear modulus and bulk modulus. A
very important test, the tensile test, has been introduced. The results, found
from pulling on a specimen of known size, are plotted as normal stress on the
vertical axis and normal strain on the horizontal axis. The above investigations
will lead us to further study of mechanical principles.
