  2. Bulk modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_modulus

    Strictly speaking, the bulk modulus is a thermodynamic quantity, and in order to specify a bulk modulus it is necessary to specify how the pressure varies during compression: constant- temperature (isothermal ), constant- entropy (isentropic ), and other variations are possible. Such distinctions are especially relevant for gases.

  3. Lamé parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamé_parameters

    Lamé parameters. In continuum mechanics, Lamé parameters (also called the Lamé coefficients, Lamé constants or Lamé moduli) are two material-dependent quantities denoted by λ and μ that arise in strain - stress relationships. [1] In general, λ and μ are individually referred to as Lamé's first parameter and Lamé's second parameter ...

  4. Elastic modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_modulus

    The bulk modulus is an extension of Young's modulus to three dimensions. Flexural modulus ( E flex ) describes the object's tendency to flex when acted upon by a moment . Two other elastic moduli are Lamé's first parameter , λ, and P-wave modulus , M , as used in table of modulus comparisons given below references.

  5. Linear elasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_elasticity

    Linear elasticity is a mathematical model as to how solid objects deform and become internally stressed by prescribed loading conditions. It is a simplification of the more general nonlinear theory of elasticity and a branch of continuum mechanics. The fundamental "linearizing" assumptions of linear elasticity are: infinitesimal strains or ...

  6. Poisson's ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson's_ratio

    The Poisson's ratio of a stable, isotropic, linear elastic material must be between −1.0 and +0.5 because of the requirement for Young's modulus, the shear modulus and bulk modulus to have positive values. [3] Most materials have Poisson's ratio values ranging between 0.0 and 0.5.

  7. Elasticity tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elasticity_tensor

    Stress-strain relation in a linear elastic material. The elasticity tensor is a fourth-rank tensor describing the stress-strain relation in a linear elastic material. [1][2] Other names are elastic modulus tensor and stiffness tensor. Common symbols include and . The defining equation can be written as.

  8. Birch–Murnaghan equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birch–Murnaghan_equation...

    The third-order Birch–Murnaghan isothermal equation of state is given by = [() / /] {+ (′) [() /]}. where P is the pressure, V 0 is the reference volume, V is the deformed volume, B 0 is the bulk modulus, and B 0 ' is the derivative of the bulk modulus with respect to pressure. The bulk modulus and its derivative are usually obtained from ...

  9. Tait equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tait_equation

    In fluid mechanics, the Tait equation is an equation of state, used to relate liquid density to hydrostatic pressure. The equation was originally published by Peter Guthrie Tait in 1888 in the form [1] A Π {\displaystyle {\frac {V_ {0}-V} {PV_ {0}}}= {\frac {A} {\Pi +P}}} where is the hydrostatic pressure in addition to the atmospheric one, is ...
