To understand the use of metals - or indeed any other material - it is helpful to know a little about three properties; stress, strain and stiffness.

The constant, E, is the modulus of elasticity, Young's modulus or the tensile modulus and is the material's stiffness. Young's modulus is in terms of 106 psi or 103 kg/mm2. If a material obeys Hooke's Law it is elastic.

One of the clear benefits of metals compared to plastics is their superior stiffness (8 times higher than plastics as an average).

Rigorous expressions for the exchange parameters and the spin-wave stiffness constant of ferromagnetic metals are obtained using a local spin-density functional formalism and the muffin-tin potential model. The calculated results for ferromagnetic iron are given as an example of the approach.

Using a local Heine-Abarenkov model potential and the perturbational formalism, the elastic shear constants C44 and C'=(C11-C12)/2 of alkali metals subject to pressure are derived theoretically, and the pressure derivatives of the elastic stiffness constants dB/dP, dC44/dP and dC'/dP arising from volume changes...

The plastics molding processes allow parts designers more freedom than working with metals because plastics materials are so versatile. Part strength; The stress-strain behavior of a material determines the material contribution to part strength (or stiffness), the relationship between load and deflection in a...
