E is an elastic constant, Young's modulus. A material exhibiting this behavior over the complete range of elastic deformation is known as a linear elastic material. Some materials have a non-linear ...

What is Young's Modulus? Young's modulus, also known as the elastic modulus, is a mechanical property that measures the stiffness of a solid material. It quantifies the relationship between stress ...

Current optical and electron microscopy imaging techniques are not suited for measuring the dynamic characteristics of living ...

A recent article in Communications Materials proposed a novel approach to enhance the elastic modulus of a cast aluminum ...

The exceptional sensitivity of atomic force microscopy and nanoindentation allows for the evaluation of minute displacements ...

Escherichia coli bacteria imaged by high-speed inline force mapping and fluorescence microscopy. Simultaneous topography and elastic modulus maps show a stiffening of the division site.
