Johns Hopkins University: Properties of Solids

Curated by ACT

From the General Physics for Bio-Science Majors web site. Several properties of solids, many of which pertain to the elasticity of materials. Stress and strain are defined and Young's modulus is explained. The Young's modulus equation is stated. Poisson's ratio and shearing forces are discussed. Notes for lecture by Collin L. Broholm, PhD.
