Shear
Modulus, Bulk Modulus
· Other
Elastic Constants can be defined in terms of other modes of material deformation.
The constitutive equations (stress/strain relationships) for these deformation
modes are also linear and have a Hookian
form.
· For
a material loaded in pure shear, the linear elastic relationship is: τ =
G γ
where
G is the Shear modulus, and the shear strain,
γ
= tan θ = {w/L}
· For
a material subjected to a uniform hydrostatic pressure, p, the linear elastic
relationship becomes:
p
= K (ΔV/V)
where
K is the Bulk modulus.
