We have recently developed a slide-ring gel that is different from physical and chemical gels by crosslinking polyrotaxane, a necklace-like supramolecule. Slide-ring gel, consisting of movable ...

When a material experiences an applied uniaxial tensile stress, s, it displays a strain response, e. In the initial stage of strain, the response is linear in the stress and may be described by ...

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 ...

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 ...

Complex behaviors can arise from simple mechanics, and that’s demonstrated by a block of rubber that acts as a counter. The block contains beams, and by controlling how the block is compressed, the ...

This rubber parking block is approximately 90% lighter than a standard concrete parking block. Because of the flexibility of rubber, these parking blocks lay flat, even in uneven areas.

My physics book has youngs modulus for only tungsten (35x10^10 N/m^2), steel (20x10^10 N/m^2), copper (11x11^10 N/m^2), brass (9.1x10^10 N/m^2), aluminum (7.0x10^10 N/m^2), glass (6.5-7.8x10^10 N/m^2) ...
