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 ...

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

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.

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

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