What is the types of modulus of elasticity?

1. Young's modulus of elasticity, E, also called elastic modulus in tension 2. Flexural modulus, usually the same as the elastic modulus for uniform isotropic materials 3. Shear modulus, also known as modulus of rigidity, G ; G = E/2/(1 + u) for isotropic materials, where u = poisson ratio 4. Dynamic modulus 5. Storage modulus 6. Bulk modulus The first three are most commonly used; the last three are for more specialized use

Every material has its elastic modulus, and the speed of sound is proportional to the square root of the elastic modulus of that material.

What are the Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio values for dry sand?

There is no simple answer for this. It can vary a lot depending on many factors, such as grading, stress history etc. There is no simple answer for this. It can vary a lot depending on many factors, such as grading, stress history etc.


What is the difference between Youngs modulus and the modulus of elasticity?

Young's Modulus (modulus of elasticity) describes the stress-strain behavior of a material under monotonic loading. The dynamic modulus of elasticity describes the same behavior under cyclic or vibratory loading.


What are the applications of modulus of rigidity?

Just as the modulus of elasticity , E, relates tensile stress to tensile strain, the modulus of rigidity, G, relates shear stress to shear strain. The modulus of rigidity, G, is, for isotropic materials, related to E as G = E/ (2(1+u)) where u = poisson ratio which varies from 0 to 0.5 and is usually 0.25-0.33 for many metals. tensile stress = Ee e = tensile strain shear stress = Gk k = shear strain


What is the Young's modulus value for suspension system materials?

Usually a minimum of 200 GPa. This is the Young's Modulus for structural steel a common material for suspension systems. Steel is great in tension. Concrete is weak in tension.
