Poisson's ratio and angle bending in spring networks

Year: 2021
Type: preprint
Abstract: The Poisson's ratio of a spring network system has been shown to depend not only on the geometry but also on the relative strength of angle-bending forces in comparison to the bond-compression forces in the system. Here we derive the very simple analytic result that in systems where the spring interaction strength is equal to the bond-reorientation interaction, the Poisson's ratio identically goes to zero and is independent of the network geometry.
