FAQ

What is the Shear Modulus of Elasticity?
Shear Modulus of Elasticity is one of the measures of mechanical properties of solids. Other elastic moduli are Young’s modulus and bulk modulus. Shear Modulus of Elasticity is usually measured using the Newton per Square Meter for Pressure. Note that the value of Shear Modulus of Elasticity is always positive.
Can the Shear Modulus of Elasticity be negative?
No, the Shear Modulus of Elasticity, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Shear Modulus of Elasticity?
Shear Modulus of Elasticity is usually measured using the Newton per Square Meter[N/m²] for Pressure. Pascal[N/m²], Kilopascal[N/m²], Bar[N/m²] are the few other units in which Shear Modulus of Elasticity can be measured.
