FAQ

What is the Shear Modulus?
Shear Modulus is the slope of the linear elastic region of the shear stress-strain curve. Shear Modulus is usually measured using the Pascal for Stress. Note that the value of Shear Modulus is always positive.
Can the Shear Modulus be negative?
No, the Shear Modulus, measured in Stress cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Shear Modulus?
Shear Modulus is usually measured using the Pascal[Pa] for Stress. Newton per Square Meter[Pa], Newton per Square Millimeter[Pa], Kilonewton per Square Meter[Pa] are the few other units in which Shear Modulus can be measured.
