The concept of the modulus of elasticity was first introduced by the British physicist and physician Thomas Young in 1807. For this reason, the term is often referred to in the literature as Young’s Modulus. By developing this concept, Young provided a quantitative means of describing how materials deform under mechanical forces. Definition The modulus of elasticity (E) is a measure of a material's tendency to deform when a force is applied. It quantifies the ratio of stress (force per unit area
