 So, how are stress and strain connected?  For isotropic materials, such as most metals, there are two values that relate values of stress and strain and fully describe a material's behavior when forces are applied.  These are the **elastic modulus** and **Poisson's ratio.** So, how are stress and strain connected?  For isotropic materials, such as most metals, there are two values that relate values of stress and strain and fully describe a material's behavior when forces are applied.  These are the **elastic modulus** and **Poisson's ratio.**
