Additional information
Although leather has been used for centuries because of its unique properties, unusually the physical properties that are normally associated with materials have not been explicitly defined. This paper describes how a tensile tester, a high speed camera and image processing software have been able to measure the Poisson’s ratio of leather, with surprising results.
