    Young's Modulus describes the relationship between stress and strain in a material and can be calculated in three main ways: the tangent Young's modulus uses the slope of the stress-strain curve at 50% of peak strength, the average Young's modulus uses the average slope of the linear portion of the curve, and the secant Young's modulus uses the slope of a line from the origin to a point on the curve at a fixed percentage of peak strength.

    Youngs Modulus

    It may be calculated in a number of ways, the most


    common being:
    Tangent Youngs modulus, Et, is the slope of the axial stress
    axial strain curve at some fixed percentage, generally 50%, of
    the peak strength.

    Average Youngs modulus, Eav, is the average slope of the


    more-or-less straight line portion of the axial stressstrain
    curve.

    Secant Youngs modulus, Es, is the slope of a straight line


    joining the origin of the axial stressstrain curve to a point on
    the curve at some fixed percentage of the peak strength.
