Tensile Modulus - or Young's Modulus alt. Modulus of Elasticity - is ameasure of stiffnessof an elastic material. It is used to describe the elastic properties of objects like wires, rods or columns when they ar
Shear modulus is the coefficient of elasticity for a shearing force. It is the ratio of shear stress to the displacement per unit sample length (shear strain). It can be experimentally determined from the slope of a stress-strain curve created during tensile tests conducted on a sample of the...
