The elastic modulus relates the applied stress to the strain it produces. In a material that obeys Hooke's Law, the initial uniaxial elastic response is linear with stress and strain coupled through ...

Young's modulus for Polythene, cross-linked by pile irradiation, has been measured by both static and dynamic means. Below about 115° C (the usual melting-point) the modulus decreases with temperature ...

Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. However, this relationship between stress and strain in a material is linear only when the force applied is within ...

Young's modulus is a mechanical property that measures the stiffness of the materials when force or compression is applied. Young's modulus relates to the elasticity of the material, which is ...
