What is Flexural Modulus?

Flexural modulus, also known as the modulus of elasticity in bending, is a measure of a material’s stiffness or resistance to flexural deformation. It is defined as the ratio of stress to strain in flexural deformation, or the tendency for a material to resist bending. It is an important parameter in engineering and materials science, particularly in the design and analysis of materials that will undergo bending stresses.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ E = \frac{50}{0.002} = 25000 \]

The flexural modulus is 25000 MPa.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ E = \frac{100}{0.004} = 25000 \]

The flexural modulus is 25000 MPa.
