What is Young's Modulus? Young's modulus, also known as the elastic modulus, is a mechanical property that measures the stiffness of a solid material. It quantifies the relationship between stress ...

Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) is an analytical technique used for measuring the modulus (stiffness) and damping (energy dissipation) characteristics of materials that are deformed due to periodic ...

In hard disk drives, digital information is stored and retrieved magnetically by a “read head” that flies over the disk within tens of nanometers of its surface. Figure 1 is a photograph of a read ...

Cambridge Polymer Group, a Boston, MA based contract research laboratory specializing in polymers, contacted Bose® with the challenge of accurately determining the dynamic stiffness and modulus of a ...

Microspheres have a wide range of uses in modern life. For example, the density of manufactured materials is lowered using hollow microspheres. In present-day liquid chromatography, the analyte is ...

The thickness of concrete coating on a large-diameter offshore pipeline may be up to eight times the wall thickness of its steel pipe, requiring that its effects on the stiffness, stresses, and ...
