Understanding Young's Modulus

Young's modulus is a crucial mechanical property in engineering, as it defines the stiffness of a material and tells us how much it will deform for an applied stress. In this video I take a detailed ...
In the high field magnet program at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, accelerator magnet prototypes are designed with epoxy impregnated niobium-tin and niobium-titanium superconductor. Accurate ...
We redevelop a theoretical model that, in conjunction with atomic force microscopy (AFM), can be used as a noninvasive method for determination of the elastic modulus of a polymer nanodroplet residing ...
In this paper, a micromechanics model based on the Mori-Tanaka method was developed to estimate the elastic modulus of underfill materials. An explicit expression of the underfill modulus was derived ...
Advances in self-healing concrete incorporating PVA fibers and microcapsules are expected to expand architectural life-spans and minimize lifecycle prices. Moreover, as the building sector accepts ...
