Modulus of elasticity, also known as Young's modulus, quantifies a material's tendency to deform elastically (i.e., non-permanently) when a force is applied. It represents the ratio of stress (force ...
The use of lightweight concrete with expanded clay has increased as an alternative for reducing the self-weight of structures. Consequently, techniques that facilitate the analysis of the mechanical ...
Young's modulus for Polythene, cross-linked by pile irradiation, has been measured by both static and dynamic means. Below about 115° C (the usual melting-point) the modulus decreases with temperature ...
Abstract: This paper reports on a simple technique to measure the anisotropy of the Young's modulus of single crystal silicon using a coupled cantilever structure fabricated in the silicon. We ...
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, ...
ABSTRACT: The global awareness and utilization of superplasticizers (SPs) in concrete have significantly contributed to developing resilient and sustainable infrastructure. Despite this, many ...
