Poisson's ratio higher in ( steel / wood / rubber)?

Ans.

When material is compressed in one direction, it usually expands in either directions perpendicular to the direction of compression. This effect is called Poisson's effect
and  Poisson's ratio for:

Rubber = 0.5
Steel = 0.288
Wood < 0.2

Thus poisson's ratio is higher for Rubber.
