FAQ

What is the Modulus of Elasticity of Material?
The modulus of elasticity of material is the slope of its stress–strain curve in the elastic deformation region. It is the measure of the stiffness of a material. Modulus of Elasticity of Material is usually measured using the Pound-Force per Square Inch for Stress. Note that the value of Modulus of Elasticity of Material is always positive.
Can the Modulus of Elasticity of Material be negative?
No, the Modulus of Elasticity of Material, measured in Stress cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Modulus of Elasticity of Material?
Modulus of Elasticity of Material is usually measured using the Pound-Force per Square Inch[lbf/in²] for Stress. Pascal[lbf/in²], Newton per Square Meter[lbf/in²], Newton per Square Millimeter[lbf/in²] are the few other units in which Modulus of Elasticity of Material can be measured.
