Example sentences for: modulus

How can you use “modulus” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

where E is the respective Young's modulus or the modulus of elasticity, η is the respective coefficient of viscosity, and ε( t ), are the respective strains and strain rates.
The curve is composed of four regions; toe, linear, failure, and complete failure [ 1 2 3 4 ] . The ligament failure mode varies with different types of ligament (ACL, PCL, MCL, and LCL) due to their different viscosities [ 5 ] . Bone also has non-linear behavior and the elastic modulus is higher in bone than in ligament [ 6 ] .
However, this method mostly measures the bending modulus.
Indeed, myosin-II null cells in the absence of surface attachment fail to elongate, verifying that myosin-II is required for this step when surface traction is not available [ 8 ] . Other gelation and solvation factors and possibly an unconventional myosin might complete the process once the cylindrical shape has been acquired (for further discussion see [ 3 ] ). Interestingly, during interphase the myosin-II null cells are 30% less stiff in bending modulus and 70% less stiff in surface tension than the wild type parental cells [ 10 26 ] . Thus, by considering the mechanics of division, one realizes that myosin-II null cells probably require significantly less force to divide, making it easier to cleave.
