    Glossary Young's modulus

    measures material stiffness by stress-to-strain ratio in elasticity

    Young's modulus, also known as the elastic modulus, is a measure of the stiffness of a material. It quantifies how much a material will deform under a given amount of stress. Specifically, it is the ratio of tensile stress (force per unit area) to tensile strain (proportional deformation) in the linear elasticity region of the material. This property is crucial in fields like materials science and engineering, as it helps predict how materials will behave under different forces.
