Calculate Shear Modulus







Formula

To calculate the Shear Modulus (G):

\[ G = \frac{F \cdot L}{A \cdot D} \]

Where:

What is Shear Modulus?

Shear modulus is defined as the ratio of shear stress to shear strain and is a measure of the rigidity of a material.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ G = \frac{1000 \cdot 2}{0.5 \cdot 0.01} = 400,000 \text{ Pascals} \]

The Shear Modulus is 400,000 Pascals.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ G = \frac{500 \cdot 1.5}{0.3 \cdot 0.02} = 125,000 \text{ Pascals} \]

The Shear Modulus is 125,000 Pascals.
