The Poisson Effect: Understanding Structural Mechanics in 3D

Description

This lecture expands on stress and strain concepts in 3D structures, introducing the Poisson effect where a load in one direction causes contraction in perpendicular directions. The Poisson ratio, a material property, relates axial and lateral strains.
