Hookes law in terms of stress and strain is stress strain in terms of the definitions l l y a f the constant of proportionality is called the elastic modulus or youngs modulus. In continuous elastic materials hookes law implies that strain is a linear function. Materials for which hookes law is a useful approximation are known as linearelastic or hookean materials. Applications of a recurring principle article pdf available in ajp advances in physiology education 334. When the elastic materials are stretched, the atoms and molecules deform until stress is been applied and when the stress is removed they return to their initial state.
This is much like the case of electrostatics, where the total energy of the. Beyond the elastic limit plastic deformation occurs and strains are not totally recoverable.
