Determination of Poisson Ratio of Bovine Extraocular Muscle by Computed X-Ray Tomography
The Poisson ratio (PR) is a fundamental mechanical parameter that approximates the ratio of relative change in cross sectional area to tensile elongation. However, the PR of extraocular muscle (EOM) is almost never measured because of experimental constraints. The problem was overcome by determining...
