UnitConversion.onlineDefinition:
Elastic modulus, also known as Young's modulus, measures a material's ability to deform elastically (i.e., non-permanently) when a force is applied. It is fundamental in materials science and engineering for assessing material stiffness and suitability for various applications.
Example Conversions:
- 1 gigapascal (GPa) = 1,000,000,000 pascals (Pa)
- Steel has an elastic modulus of approximately 200 GPa
