Young's modulus describes the relationship between stress (sigma) and strain (epsilon) in a material that obeys Hooke's law. That means that there is a linear elastic relationship between stress and strain (which means that for a given change in strain, there will be a linearly proportional change in internal stress).

Young's modulus (E) is calculated as follows:

E = sigma / epsilon

Where:

epsilon (strain) = change in length of sample / original length [-]

sigma (stress) = force / area [N/m-2]

What does it mean if you have a high value for youngs modulus 8333.3 compared to a low value 1200?

Young's modulus is stress/strain. So if the modulus is high, it means that the stress value is greater compare to that of the material where the modulus is low. or in other words, the strain is very less compared to that of the material having low Young's modulus. So it tells that, if a material has high Young's modulus, the material requires more load for deformation of shape (within elastic limit).

What are the different types of modulus elasticity?

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


What is the material poisson ratio of Epdm?

Depends on the hardness of the formulation. Poisson's ratio depends mainly on the bulk modulus and slightly on the Youngs modulus at very low strains for the subject compound. If the Youngs modulus lies between 0.92 and 9.40MN/m², Poisson's ratio lies between 0.49930 and 0.49993.
