Shear modulus

In solid mechanics, the shear modulus or modulus of rigidity, denoted by G, or sometimes S or μ, is a measure of the elastic shear stiffness of a material and is defined as the ratio of shear stress to shear strain: G := τ x y γ x y = F A Δ x l = F l A Δ x τ x y = F A γ x y = Δ x l {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}G&:={\frac {\tau _{xy}}{\gamma…
