The elastic modulus relates the applied stress to the strain it produces. In a material that obeys Hooke's Law, the initial uniaxial elastic response is linear with stress and strain coupled through ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. However, this relationship between stress and strain in a material is linear only when the force applied is within ...

This is a note on the compressive modulus of elasticity of Gap Pad materials, including the variability in compressive modulus values, the constant rate of strain relaxation modulus, and compression ...

Instrumented indentation, or nanoindentation, is an important technique used for measuring the mechanical properties of materials, and can be conducted in situ even on the circuit board itself. This ...

The thickness of concrete coating on a large-diameter offshore pipeline may be up to eight times the wall thickness of its steel pipe, requiring that its effects on the stiffness, stresses, and ...

Three samples of shale rock, two from the Eagle Ford play and one from the Haynesville play, were successfully tested by instrumented indentation using a Nano Indenter G200 from KLA. Results were ...

When a material experiences an applied uniaxial tensile stress, s, it displays a strain response, e. In the initial stage of strain, the response is linear in the stress and may be described by ...
