See also Young's modulus, bulk modulus, modulus of rigiditymodulus of elasticity in Mechanical Engineering (mɒdʒələs əv ilæstɪsɪti) noun (Mechanical engineering: Materials) The modulus of elasticity of a material is a measure of its stiffness. It is equal to the stress applied to it divided by the resulting elastic strain. The modulus of elasticity of steel is many times higher than that of rubber. By definition, a stiffer material has a higher modulus of elasticity. The modulus of elasticity of a material is a measure of its stiffness. It is equal to the stress applied toit divided by the resulting elastic strain. |
