Some basic information about the modulus of elasticity
The elasticity modulus determines how much strength a material can oppose to a tensile or compression force and to what extent it will be deformed when subjected to such a force.
The elasticity modulus is usually abbreviated to “E” or referred to as “Young’s Modulus” and is used to find out the behaviour of a material when subjected to traction or compression.
Elastic behaviour means a material’s taking its initial shape after being temporarily deformed due to being pulled or compressed, once the force has been removed.
The elasticity modulus is a measurement of this elastic behaviour.
