Application of the method of caustics to the experimental determination of the Poisson ratio

The classical optical method of caustics is used for the direct experimental determination of the Poisson ratio of an isotropic elastic material. Only one simple tension experiment and the measurement of two diameters of caustics are required. The numerical values of all other constants in the exper...
