Modulus of Toughness

A material''s modulus of toughness will vary depending on the material''s ductility; two materials with the same yield strength can vary greatly in their modulus of toughness if one of the materials is more ductile than the other.

It also is called the modulus of elasticity or the tensile modulus. Young''s modulus is the slope of a stress-strain curve. Stress-strain curves often are not straight-line plots, indicating that the modulus is changing with the amount of strain.

Storage modulus, loss modulus, and hardness depended on hydration and orientation of osteons relative to loading direction of the indenter tip. This strength–toughness tradeoff is seen in bone [31, 32], and explains why increased matrix stiffness (i.e. modulus) and hardness is detrimental to fracture resistance.
