Flexural Modulus
Flexural modulus, also known as bending modulus, quantifies a material’s stiffness when subjected to bending or flexural stress. It represents the material’s ability to resist deformation under such loads, which is crucial in applications where structural integrity and dimensional stability are paramount, such as construction materials and automotive components.
