In the initial stage of strain, the response is linear in the stress and may be described by Hooke's law: s = E e. E is an elastic constant, Young's modulus. A material exhibiting this behavior over ...

A recent article in Communications Materials proposed a novel approach to enhance the elastic modulus of a cast aluminum alloy by incorporating isostructural Laves phases to form a multi-component ...

Setting: Cadaveric study. Results: The mean compressive stiffness was 31.75 (SD 16.7) MPa, and the mean tensile elastic modulus was 24.7 (SD 10.8) MPa. The anterosuperior region had a significantly ...

elasticity, and resilience, you must not only consider the type of polymer, but also the mechanics of its macromolecular architecture. Sergei Sheiko of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will first delve ...
