2. Resilient Modulus (M R): M R is a subgrade material stiffness test. A material's M R is actually an estimate of its modulus of elasticity (E). While the modulus of elasticity is stress divided by strain for a slowly applied load, M R is stress-divided by strain for rapidly applied loads like those experienced by pavements.

Tensile Stress. Tensile stress is that type of stress in which the two sections of material on either side of a stress plane tend to pull apart or elongate as illustrated in Figure 1(a).. Compressive Stress. Compressive stress is the reverse of tensile stress. Adjacent parts of the material tend to press against each other through a typical stress plane as illustrated in Figure 1(b).

Bulk Stress, Strain, and Modulus. When you dive into water, you feel a force pressing on every part of your body from all directions. What you are experiencing then is bulk stress, or in other words, pressure.Bulk stress …

The proportionality constant in this relation is called the elastic modulus. In the linear limit of low stress values, the general relation between stress and strain is. As we can see from dimensional analysis of this relation, the elastic modulus has the same physical unit as stress because strain is dimensionless. ... The dashed-line contour ...

Guide [3] provide the need for the measurement of elastic modulus for pavement materials as input for mechanistic design of flexible pavements. According to Huang [4], the elastic modulus to be used is resilient modulus (MR), and is defined as the ratio of deviator stress, σd over the recoverable strain, ε r: r ε d σ = R M (1)

Elastic Limit: It is defined as the value of stress upto and within which the material return back to their original position (i.e. shape and size) on the removal of external force. If the value of external force is such that it exceeds the elastic limit, than the body will not completely regain its original position.

TS 500 [38] defines the secant modulus of elasticity of concrete (E cs) at the stress level of 0.4f c. EN 12390-13 [18] defines chord modulus (E cc) between the stress levels of (1/10)f c and (1/3)f c. The objective is to compare the modulus of elasticity values calculated for each group according to the definitions given by these technical ...

The main factors affecting the mechanical characteristics of concrete are w/c ratio, type and amount of aggregate, age of the concrete, and curing conditions of concrete [6,[10][11][12].

The two parameters that determine the elasticity of a material are its elastic modulus and its elastic limit. A high elastic modulus is typical for materials that are hard to deform; in other words, materials that require a high load to achieve a significant strain. ...

The new version of Hooke's law is . Now we have, which is called Young's Modulus or the modulus of elasticity.Young's modulus provides the linear relationship between stress and strain. Young's modulus is the same for any material–you could take a spoon or a girder; as long as they have the same young's modulus and you knew their sizes, you could …

Several research works compared the estimated elastic moduli of various soils from the laboratory tests. For example, Sun et al.

The nomenclature and symbols from the 1993 AASHTO Guideis generally used in referring to pavement moduli. For example: 1. EAC = asphalt concreteelastic modulus 1. E BS = base course resilient modulus 1. ESB= subbase course resilient modulus 1. MR (or ESG) = roadbed soil (subgrade) …

The area up to the yield point is termed the modulus of resilience, and the total area up to fracture is termed the modulus of toughness; these are shown in Figure 13. The term "modulus" is used because the units of strain energy per unit volume are (N-m/m^3) or (N/m^2), which are the same as stress or modulus of elasticity.

Modulus of Elasticity: The specimens containing granular rubber exhibited the highest modulus of elasticity, while the lowest was recorded for those with rubber chips. A substantial drop in modulus was observed once the rubber content exceeded 6%, reaching values of 211 kPa and 161 kPa at 6% CRTW, respectively.

Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio From the truss and strain laboratories you are now familiar with at least two elastic constants. If we apply a uniaxial tensile stress sL to a constant cross-section rod of material, we will obtain a biaxial state of strain, consisting of an axial tensile strain eL and a transverse strain eT .The axial strain will be tensile for a tensile applied stress ...

The proportional limit is defined as the highest stress at which stress and strain are directly proportional so that the stress-strain graph is a straight line such that the gradient is equal to the elastic modulus of the material. For many metals, the proportional limit is equal to the elastic limit.

Young's modulus, or the modulus of elasticity, represents the stiffness of elastic materials. It is the ratio of longitudinal stress to strain and is denoted. ...
