In an elastic material which has been subject to strain below its elastic limit, the ratio of the unit stress to the corresponding unit strain.
The ratio of stress to the corresponding strain within the limit of elasticity.
Ratio between stress and strain in a material deformed within its linear elastic range.
Measure of a material’s rigidity or stiffness, related to the slope of the stress-versusstrain curve within the linear elastic deformation range. measured in megapascals (mpa). for tensile stress and strain, also called young’s modulus.
