The modulus of elasticity , E, relates tensile stress to tensile strain
The modulus of rigidity, G, relates shear stress to shear strain
The bulk modulus, K, relates compressive stress to volume strain
The three are related using u, poisson ratio of material, that varies generally from 0 to 0.5
E = 9K/ (1 + 3K/G)
G = E/2(1+u)
G = 3(1-2u)K/2(1+u)
The rigidity modulus, also known as the shear modulus, is a material property that measures its response to shear stress. It is independent of the dimensions of the wire, such as its radius. Therefore, if the radius of the wire is doubled, the rigidity modulus remains unchanged. The deformation behavior of the wire may change due to the increased cross-sectional area, but the rigidity modulus itself is a constant for that material.
For isotropic materials G = E/ (2(1+u) where u = poisson ratio
By using tensile test.
It will depend on the Nylon type; average is about 200,000 psi (1380 MPa)
y(young's modulus of rigidity)=stress/strain now strain is dimensionless hence y=stress y=M L-1 T-2
there are different types of modulus it depends on what types of stress is acting on the material if its direct stress then then there is modulus of elasticity,if tis shear stress then its modulus of rigidity and when its volumetric stress it is bulk modulus and so on
modulus of elasticity = 15 Msi; poisson ratio = 0.3 modulus of rigidity = E/ ((2(1 + poisson)) = 5.8 Msi

G = E/2(1+u) where G = mod of rigidity and u =poisson ration and E = young modulus

The modulus of rigidity of a wire is a measure of its resistance to shearing deformation. It is typically represented by the symbol G and is expressed in units of pascals (Pa). The specific value of the modulus of rigidity for a given wire will depend on its material composition and properties.
It is around 40 GPa.
about 70 to 80 GPa

It is the ratio of shear stress to shear strain.
