Hi, all. Is it possible to derive poisson ratio purely from uniaxial stress strain response?
 
I'm quite positive you cannot do this, since the poissons ratio is by definition the ratio between the tranvserse train to the axial strain. You need both values in order to be able to calculate the ratio.
