modulus of elasticity

modulus of elasticity
the ratio of stress to strain when deformation is totally elastic; also a measure of the stiffness of a material. Modulus of elasticity can be interpreted as the slope of the stress-strain graph. It is usually denoted as E, sometimes known as Young's modulus Y, or E-modulus.
