What is Young's Modulus? Young's modulus, also known as the elastic modulus, is a mechanical property that measures the stiffness of a solid material. It quantifies the relationship between stress ...
In hard disk drives, digital information is stored and retrieved magnetically by a “read head” that flies over the disk within tens of nanometers of its surface. Figure 1 is a photograph of a read ...
The use of instrumented indentation in materials testing includes its widespread application in measurements of Young’s modulus and hardness on limited volumes of test material. Such situations ...
