Young described the characterization of elasticity that came to be known as Young's modulus, denoted as E, in 1807, and further described it in his Course of Lectures on Natural Philosophy and the Mechanical Arts.

However, the first use of the concept of Young's modulus in experiments was by Giordano Riccati in 1782 – predating Young by 25 years.

The pascal ( symbol: Pa ) is the SI derived unit of pressure, internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and tensile strength, named after the French mathematician, physicist, inventor, writer, and philosopher Blaise Pascal.

where D is the density, E is Young's modulus and d is the maximum density of iron.

Carbon fibers derived from Polyacrylonitrile ( PAN ) are turbostratic, whereas carbon fibers derived from mesophase pitch are graphitic after heat treatment at temperatures exceeding 2200 C. Turbostratic carbon fibers tend to have high tensile strength, whereas heat-treated mesophase-pitch-derived carbon fibers have high Young's modulus ( i. e., high stiffness or resistance to extension under load ) and high thermal conductivity.

The orientation of the polymer chains is responsible for the high strength and stiffness of biaxially oriented PET film, which has a typical Young's modulus of about 4 GPa.

Metglas 2605SC also exhibits a very strong ΔE-effect with reductions in the effective Young's modulus up to about 80 % in bulk.

Young's modulus, also known as the tensile modulus, is a measure of the stiffness of an elastic material and is a quantity used to characterize materials.

The tangent modulus of the initial, linear portion of a stress-strain curve is called Young's modulus.

In anisotropic materials, Young's modulus may have different values depending on the direction of the applied force with respect to the material's structure.

It is also commonly called the elastic modulus or modulus of elasticity, because Young's modulus is the most common elastic modulus used, but there are other elastic moduli measured, too, such as the bulk modulus and the shear modulus.

Young's modulus is the ratio of stress, which has units of pressure, to strain, which is dimensionless ; therefore, Young's modulus has units of pressure.

Young's modulus, E, can be calculated by dividing the tensile stress by the tensile strain in the elastic ( initial, linear ) portion of the stress-strain curve:

Where is the applied stress, is a material constant called Young's modulus, and ε is the resulting strain.

This relationship only applies in the elastic range and indicates that the slope of the stress vs. strain curve can be used to find Young's modulus.

* Young's modulus (< var > E </ var >) describes tensile elasticity, or the tendency of an object to deform along an axis when opposing forces are applied along that axis ; it is defined as the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain.

Mathematically, the modulus of resilience can be expressed by the product of the square of the yield stress divided by two times the Young's modulus.

where E is the Young's modulus, ν is Poisson's ratio, and K < sub > I </ sub > is the stress intensity factor in mode I. Irwin also showed that the strain energy release rate of a planar crack in a linear elastic body can be expressed in terms of the mode I, mode II ( sliding mode ), and mode III ( tearing mode ) stress intensity factors for the most general loading conditions.

Other moduli describe the material's response ( strain ) to other kinds of stress: the shear modulus describes the response to shear, and Young's modulus describes the response to linear stress.

The amount a material springs back is equal to Young's modulus for the material from the final stress.

* In Batman: Arkham Asylum, Ra's al Ghul's body can be found zipped up in a body bag in the morgue part of Arkham Mansion near Dr. Penny Young's office, which serves as the answer to the riddle " It'll be a cold day in hell when this Ghul rises again .".

Then into the tabernacle now in use, tortoise shape, and capable of holding 7000 people ... we passed the great co-operative store ... and Brigham Young's houses ', near which was pointed out Mr. Taylor John Taylor ( Latter Day Saint ) | John Taylor, a very important and able ruler in the body ".

Contrast in well-known English translations with its rendering in Young's Literal Translation:

Joyce Young, Bob Young's aunt, purchased stock in Red Hat Inc. shortly after its founding.

Cy Young's career is seen as a bridge from baseball's earliest days to its modern era ; he pitched against stars such as Cap Anson, already an established player when the National League was first formed in 1876, as well as against Eddie Collins, who played until 1930.

The pitcher's mound was not moved back to its present position of until Young's fourth season ; he did not wear a glove until his sixth season.

A second and more contemporary collaboration with Harris and Ronstadt, Trio II ( 1999 ), was released and its cover of Neil Young's " After the Gold Rush " won a Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals.

Ever since its rediscovery, the stone has been the focus of nationalist rivalries, including its transfer from French to British possession during the Napoleonic Wars, a long-running dispute over the relative value of Young's and Champollion's contributions to the decipherment, and since 2003, demands for the stone's return to Egypt.

Ernst & Young's publicity activity includes its worldwide Entrepreneur Of The Year program, run in 50 countries.

In State Board of Equalization v. Young's Market Co.,, the Supreme Court recognized that " Prior to the Twenty-first Amendment it would obviously have been unconstitutional " for a state to require a license and fee to import beer anywhere within its borders.

The Court criticized its earliest rulings on the issue, ( including State Board of Equalization v. Young's Market Co .) and promulgated its most limited interpretation to date: The aim of the Twenty-first Amendment was to allow States to maintain an effective and uniform system for controlling liquor by regulating its transportation, importation, and use.

Since that time, Detroit has been unable to lose its reputation as one of the most corrupt cities in America -- a perception frequently attributed to the period coinciding with Young's long tenure as mayor.

However, the concept was developed in 1727 by Leonhard Euler, and the first experiments that used the concept of Young's modulus in its current form were performed by the Italian scientist Giordano Riccati in 1782, predating Young's work by 25 years.

In quantum mechanics, a single wave can interfere with itself, but this is due to its quantum behavior and is still an addition of two waves ( see Young's slits experiment ).

The methods employed to predict the response of a structure under loading and its susceptibility to various failure modes may take into account various properties of the materials other than material yield strength and ultimate strength ; for example, failure by buckling is dependent on material stiffness and thus Young's Modulus.

While Holland was touring with another new band, the Q-Tips, its frontman, Paul Young became acquainted with Palladino and a year later offered him a place in Young's own backing band.

Young's replacement, Fred Freiberger, returned the series to its original concept, and it was on his watch that the arch-villain Dr. Loveless was created.

Among its successes were " Sessomatto " by Sessa Matto, Karen Young's " Hot Shot ," " Heartbeat " by Taana Gardner ( remixed by Levan ), " Do It to the Music " by Raw Silk, and " Don't Make Me Wait " by the Peech Boys ( produced by Levan ).

" Irons made his debut with the band at Neil Young's 1994 Bridge School Benefit, but he was not officially announced as the band's new drummer until its 1995 Self-Pollution satellite radio broadcast, a four-and-a-half hour long pirate broadcast out of Seattle, Washington which was available to any radio stations that wanted to carry it.

According to Young's biography Shakey, Crazy Horse had begun a sixth album of its own in the mid-1990s, but left the project unfinished when Young called upon the group to join him for some secret club dates in California ( for which the quartet billed themselves as the Echoes ) and for the recording of Broken Arrow.
