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 ...

City University of Hong Kong researchers have accidentally discovered a first-of-its-kind alloy that retains its stiffness instead of softening as the temperature rises. Indeed, high-entropy Elinvar ...

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 ...

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 ...

A recent article in Communications Materials proposed a novel approach to enhance the elastic modulus of a cast aluminum alloy by incorporating isostructural Laves phases to form a multi-component, ...

It is difficult to take accurate measurements of the elastic modulus when it comes to thin films, because of what is called the substrate effect. In general, the depth of indentation is limited to 10% ...

They're in a range of consumer products -- everything from toothpaste and yogurt to fabric softeners and insoles for shoes. But what puts the spring, the elasticity in gels? New research has found the ...

This is a note on the compressive modulus of elasticity of Gap Pad materials, including the variability in compressive modulus values, the constant rate of strain relaxation modulus, and compression ...
