Moduli (physics)

In physics, particularly in the context of materials science and condensed matter physics, the term "moduli" often refers to material properties that describe how a material deforms in response to applied forces. The most commonly discussed types of moduli are: 1. **Young's Modulus (E)**: This is a measure of the tensile stiffness of a material. It quantifies how much a material will elongate or compress under tension or compression.
