This video by ADMET shows a concrete compression test performed according to ASTM C469 - Standard Test Method for Static Modulus of Elasticity and Poisson's Ratio of Concrete in Compression.

The elastic modulus relates the applied stress to the strain it produces. In a material that obeys Hooke's Law, the initial uniaxial elastic response is linear with stress and strain coupled through ...

A study compared various artifical intelligence techniques for determining Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus. These techniques provide an alternative, less costly method for determining mechanical ...

Nanoindentation is a method of measurement of the mechanical properties of small volumes of materials using an instrumented indentation technique. Elastic modulus, hardness, fracture toughness, creep ...

Subjecting a material to a hydrostatic stress also causes elastic deformation. The stress is the pressure, p, acting on the body and the strain, d = DV/V. These quantities are related through a ...
