Relation between modulus of elasticity (E), modulus of rigidity (G) and bulk modulus(K)
Relation between modulus of rigidity (G) and modulus of elasticity (E):
E | = 2G (1 + μ) |
where E | = modulus of elasticity |
μ | = Poisson's ratio |
G | = modulus of rigidity |
∴ E = 2G(1 + μ)
Relation between modulus of elasticity(E) and bulk modulus(K):
We known that when body is subjected to a tri-axial stress system, its volumetric strain is given byeV = δV/V | = ((σX + σY + σZ )/E)(1 - 2μ) |
Here σX | = σY = σZ = σ |
∴ eV | = (3σ/E)(1 - 2μ) |
but K | = σ / eV = σ / (3σ/E)(1 - 2μ) | ∴ K | = E / 3(1 - 2μ) |
∴ E = 3K(1 - 2μ)

Mst hai bhai good chaha gaye yara
ReplyDeleteUseful for mechanical engineers too ;) Cheers !
ReplyDeletegood one useful for instrumentation engineers too!!!!! thanks man
ReplyDeleteThank-you for its relation but same problems updates on bases this formulas ok
ReplyDeleteMoodug
DeleteThanks
ReplyDeleteThanks
ReplyDeleteMujhe ye bhut acchha lga.
ReplyDeleteLekin aur bhi bhut si equations hoti h jo mathematicaly proff krni hoti h .
So please ese aur bhi equations ko proff kiya jaye
Jisse sbhi ko aasani ho
It's correct..
ReplyDeleteThankyou!!!
ReplyDeleteDerive all Elastic constant relationship please sent my gmail. Address
ReplyDeleteSuperb!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting 😊👍
Thankyou
ReplyDeleteI think derivation for this helps everyone.can you please provide a derivation....
ReplyDeleteVery good
ReplyDeleteInformative and useful
ReplyDeleteVery nice explanation can explain is there any difference between varignon's theorem and princeple of moments or both are same.
