Security that scales with your business. Tensile Modulus - Young's Modulus or Modulus of Elasticity - is a measure of stiffness of an elastic material. It is used to describe the elastic properties of objects like wires, rods or columns when they are stretched or compressed. Tensile Modulus is defined as the "ratio of stress (force per unit area) along an axis to strain (ratio of deformation over initial length) along that axis" It can be used to predict the elongation or compression of an object as long as the stress is less than the yield strength of the material.

Strain - ε Strain is "deformation of a solid due to stress" - change in dimension divided by the original value of the dimension - and can be expressed as ε = dL / L

(1)

where ε = strain (m/m) (in/in) dL = elongation or compression (offset) of the object (m) (in) L = length of the object (m) (in)

Stress - σ Stress is force per unit area and can be expressed as σ=F/A

(2)

where σ = stress (N/m2, lb/in2, psi) F = force (N, lb) A = area of object (m2, in2) tensile stress - stress that tends to stretch or lengthen the material - acts normal to the stressed area compressive stress - stress that tends to compress or shorten the material - acts normal to the stressed area shearing stress - stress that tends to shear the material - acts in plane to the stressed area at right-angles to compressive or tensile stress

Young's Modulus - Tensile Modulus, Modulus of Elasticity - E Young's modulus can be expressed as E = stress / strain = (F / A) / (dL / L)

(3)

where E = Young's modulus (N/m2, lb/in2, psi) named after the 18th-century English physician and physicist Thomas Young

Modulus of Elasticity or Young's Modulus - and Tensile Modulus for common Materials

Elasticity Elasticity is a property of an object or material which will restore it to its original shape after distortion. A spring is an example of an elastic object - when stretched, it exerts a restoring force which tends to bring it back to its original length. This restoring force is in general proportional to the stretch described by Hooke's Law.

Hooke's Law One property of elasticity is that it takes about twice as much force to stretch a spring twice as far. That linear dependence of displacement upon stretching force is called Hooke's law which can be expressed as Fs = -k dL

(4)

where Fs = force in the spring (N) k = spring constant (N/m) dL = elongation of the spring (m) Note that Hooke's Law can also be applied to material undergoing three dimensional stress (triaxial loading).

Yield strength - σy Yield strength is defined in engineering as the amount of stress (Yield point) that a material can undergo before moving from elastic deformation into plastic deformation. Yielding - a material deforms permanently The Yield Point is in mild- or medium-carbon steel the stress at which a marked increase in deformation occurs without increase in load. In other steels and in nonferrous metals this phenomenon is not observed.

Ultimate Tensile Strength - σu The Ultimate Tensile Strength - UTS - of a material is the limit stress at which the material actually breaks, with sudden release of the stored elastic energy.
