Figure 4.5. ( a) When a constant load is applied to a tendon or ligament, its deformation gradually "creeps" to a stable value. ( b) When a constant deformation is applied, the load (material stress) "relaxes" to a stable value. The times required for these processes are of the order of minutes or hours.
The concept of "modulus" – the ratio of stress to strain – must be broadened to account for this more complicated behavior. Equation 5.4.22 can be solved for the stress σ(t) once the strain ϵ(t) is specified, or for the strain if the stress is specified. Two examples will illustrate this process: Example 5.4.2.
License: CC BY-SA 4.0. Steels are iron–carbon alloys that may contain appreciable concentrations of other alloying elements. Adding a small amount of non-metallic carbon to iron trades its great ductility for the greater strength. Due to its very-high strength, but still substantial toughness, and its ability to be greatly altered by heat ...

The temperature dependences of storage modulus and loss factor (tan δ) for PTMG-PU and PBA-PU with different irradiation doses are shown in Fig. 1. The storage modulus decreases gradually with increasing temperature until a sharp decrease step, which is attributed to the glass transition at -55 °C for PTMG-PU and -41 °C for PBA-PU.

Two mechanical properties, elastic modulus, and hardness can be determined by nanoindentation. The elastic modulus (E), often referred to as Young''s modulus is the ratio of stress (σ) to strain (ε) when deformation is totally elastic. In the elastic region, stress and strain are proportional through Hooke''s Law: σ = Eε.
