FAQ

What is the Shear Modulus?
Shear Modulus in Pa is the slope of the linear elastic region of the shear stress-strain curve. Shear Modulus is usually measured using the Pascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Shear Modulus is always positive. Typically, the value of Shear Modulus is greater than 0.
Can the Shear Modulus be negative?
No, the Shear Modulus, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Shear Modulus?
Shear Modulus is usually measured using the Pascal[Pa] for Pressure. Kilopascal[Pa], Bar[Pa], Pound Per Square Inch[Pa] are the few other units in which Shear Modulus can be measured.
