E is an elastic constant, Young's modulus. A material exhibiting this behavior over the complete range of elastic deformation is known as a linear elastic material. Some materials have a non-linear ...

D-printed hydrogel is soft, and sometimes it can be tough. However, could it be hard? Here, researchers from Zhejiang University report a 3D photo-printable hard/soft switchable hydrogel composite, ...

and the elastic moduli of materials. "We proposed a simple and accurate model based on material properties such as the shear ...

Setting: Cadaveric study. Results: The mean compressive stiffness was 31.75 (SD 16.7) MPa, and the mean tensile elastic modulus was 24.7 (SD 10.8) MPa. The anterosuperior region had a significantly ...
