Young Modulus (E) = Stress / Strain (Within Elastic Limit i.e. Hooke's Law)

Where: Stress = Force / Cross sectional area

Strain = Change in length / original length

% Elongation = increase in gauge length / Original gauge x 100%

To calculate the reduction in area: you need to calculate the original area of the specimen using the original dimensions of specimen then calculate the change in areaof the specimen using change in dimensions after the test. The difference between the two areas will give you the change in area.

I hope this info helps.

How do you do the experiment of searle's apparatus young's modulus?

Young's Modulus is the measurement of the stiffness of material, or the tensile strength. Searle's Apparatus is used to hold two wires parallel to find out the tensile strength.


What is the difference between tensile strength and tensile modulus?

Tensile strength is the ultimate capacity of the material to resist a tensile load regardless of deflection.Tensile modulus also known as Young's modulus, is a measure of the stiffness of an isotropic elastic material. It is defined as the ratio of the uniaxial stress over the uniaxial strain. It is determined from the slope of a stress-strain curve traced during tensile tests conducted on a sample of the material.


Is tensile modulus the same as young's modulus?

Yes, indeed. Sometimes tensile modulus is different from flexural modulus, especially for composites. But tensile modulus and elastic modulus and Young's modulus are equivalent terms.


What is the relation between elastic modulus and tensile modulus?

The elastic modulus, also called Young's modulus, is identical to the tensile modulus. It relates stress to strain when loaded in tension.


What is tensile modulas?

Tensile modulus is the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain.


What is 2 Secant Modulus?

This question probably is referring to a 2% secant modulus, which can be the tensile, flexural or compressive modulus (slope of a stress/strain curve) of a material that is determined from calculating the slope of a line drawn from the origin to 2% strain on a stress/Strain curve.


What is the formula for calculating tensile strength of a steel bar?

Not really. There may be some relationships that work narrowly within very similar materials, but they really are different physical properties.There is no formulae to calculate yield strength from tensile strength...


Is ultimate flexural strength and moment of resistance the same in a reinforced section?

No the moment of resistance is a defining parameter that can be used to calculate the stress in a cross section of a given material that is subject to flexural loading. The ultimate flexural strength is a numerical value of stress at which the material will crack, tear, rip etc. Think about ultimate tensile strength and the value of Young's Modulus. Young's Modulus is not defined at the point of 'necking' and therefore the ultimate tensile strength cannot be computed from Young's Modulus and Hook's Law, but the UTS is an empirically defined value.
