Elastic modulus is a general term for the ratio of stress to strain in materials, while Young's modulus specifically measures this ratio for linear elastic deformation under tension or compression.
1.a rubber ligature that slowly constricts; 2.in orthodontics, a stretchable threadlike material that may be tied from a tooth to an archwire or from tooth to tooth to gain movement of these units. Farlex Partner Medical Dictionary © Farlex 2012 ...
the proportional limit is defined as the highest stress at which stress and strain are directly proportional so that the stress-strain graph is a straight line such that the gradient is equal to the elastic modulus of the material. for many metals, the proportional limit is equal to the ...
Using the above equation we can easily say that to reduce the amount of bending for a certain load, Young’s modulus of elasticity of the material used must be large. Since sag is inversely proportional to the cube of depth, the depth d must be considered. But the problem faced on incre...
The unit of equivalent elastic strain depends on the units used for stress and Young's Modulus. In SI units, the unit of equivalent elastic strain is the Pascal (Pa), which is equal to one Newton Per Square Meter (N/m^2). In EE units, the unit of equivalent elastic strain is the ...
d, Simulated phase diagram for Icoil → ∞ showing regions across the parameter space of skin modulus and indentation depth for successful bistability. The shaded regions correspond to the boundaries of bistability, outside which only one state is attainable (monostable, compressed or relaxed)....
The dynamic modulus-stress relationship is characterized and used as input to the equation of motion for nonlinear elastic wave propagation. This equation of motion is examined for one-dimensional propagation using a Green function method. The out-of-phase component of the dynamic modulus due to ...
where G and v are the shear modulus and Poisson's ratio, d and t are the d-spacing of twining planes and the twin thickness. For very small twins (e.g. t=10 nm) the critical shear stress τc is about 10−2 G, which is two orders of magnitude larger than the magnetostress. ...
The system has an elastic unit (300) that is used to suspend a data access apparatus within depression, and another elastic unit (400) with an elastic modulus smaller than the former. The apparatus stretches or bends the former unit and compresses the latter unit, while a body is impacted...
