Q

Poisson’s ratio
Range
- cork
- rubber

A

Ratio of transverse strain an object undergoes to the axial strain that is applied
Higher ratio = more “squash able”
Must be -1 to 0.5 Most between 0 - 0.5. Cork 0 (compressible), rubber 0.5 (incompressible)

Definition and example:
- Creep + e.g.
- Stress relation + e.g.
- Endurance limit
- Stress shielding

A

Stress remains constant and strain increases - ACL graft
Constant strain and a reduction in stress - Ponsetti casting
Highest stress to withstand >10 million cycles
Bone protected from stress so less load so loss of bone mass
