  What is young's modulus?
========================

Modulus of elasticity, tensile modulus, coefficient of elasticity, modulus of strain or Young's modulus is a material characteristic value from materials technology that describes the proportional relationship between stress and strain during the deformation of a solid body with linear-elastic behavior.
