Applications of elasticity on different components of human body.
Bones: stress break the bones.
Arteries and Veins: They carry blood, inner walls are elastic.
Focus: In a lifetime of 70 years, the human heart beats some 2.5 billion times.
This durable pump is the centerpiece of the cardiovascular system.
1) Hooke's law
2) Different kinds of elastic modulus
3) Stress versus strain curves.
4) Diffrence in elastic and plastic deformation
5) Properties of Matter
6) Elastic properties of human bady.
7) A number of example problem.
1) A matirial having. large y, if requires a large' force to produce a small elongation or compression.
2) Matirial which stretches/compression to a longer extent due to a given lord in termed an mare elastic.
3) Stress is not a vector quntity.
