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 ...

What is Young's Modulus? Young's modulus, also known as the elastic modulus, is a mechanical property that measures the stiffness of a solid material. It quantifies the relationship between stress ...

With their whip-like tails, human sperm propel themselves through viscous fluids, seemingly in defiance of Newton's third law ...

New research from the Ateneo de Manila University could pave the way for more durable versions of silicon carbide (SiC), a ...

In a recent publication in the International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing, the team, led by Prof. Ying Cai from the ...

Elasticity and inelasticity of demand refer to the degree to which demand responds to a change in an economic factor. Price is the most common economic factor used when determining elasticity.

Subjecting a material to a hydrostatic stress also causes elastic deformation. The stress is the pressure, p, acting on the body and the strain, d = DV/V. These quantities are related through a ...

The porous structure within the grippers offers a way to tune the elastic modulus of the materials and make them more ...

A research team led by Associate Professor Li Mujun, Professor Zhang Shiwu, and Professor Hu Bing from the University of ...

In a recent article in Scientific Reports, researchers present an advanced wound dressing material using electrospun fibers ...
