Young's modulus is a mechanical property that measures the stiffness of the materials when force or compression is applied. Young's modulus relates to the elasticity of the material, which is ...

Running is a spring-loaded sport—and no, I’m not just referring to the springy, carbon-plated super shoes that have swept the running world in recent years. Muscles and tendons themselves act like ...

Nanoindentation is a measurement technique which is important in measuring Young’s modulus and hardness in thin films and any other situations involving the measurement of limited amounts of material.
