The formula to calculate the Lateral Strain is:
\[ Sd = \frac{\Delta d}{d} \]
Where:
Lateral Strain is the ratio of the change in diameter to the original diameter.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ Sd = \frac{\Delta d}{d} \]
Evaluating:
\[ Sd = \frac{0.0505}{2} \]
The Lateral Strain is 0.02525.
