A dynamic classifying approach for materials

Abstract

Considering the time-varying of the poriness of the materials in the loading process, a dynamic classifying method for the materials is proposed based on the strain factor defined from the strain relationship in three orthogonal directions. Comparing with the current classifying approach based on the Poisson's ratio, the method presented in this work is a dynamic approach that can reflect the real-time strain relationship in three orthogonal directions as well as the varying specific molecular structures partly in the loading process of the materials.
