The secant modulus is the total stress or strain on an object as described by a stress-strain graph. The tangent modulus is the marginal strain.

How do you calculate secant modulus of elasitity?

If you have a stress strain curve that is non-linear the secant modulus is the slope of a straight line connecting the zero strain point to the final strain point of interest


What is 2 Secant Modulus?

This question probably is referring to a 2% secant modulus, which can be the tensile, flexural or compressive modulus (slope of a stress/strain curve) of a material that is determined from calculating the slope of a line drawn from the origin to 2% strain on a stress/Strain curve.


How do you calculate secant modulus at 2.5 strain on a graph?

draw a line vertical from where strain is equal to 2.5%. where it hits your stress vs. strain curve, draw a line from there to the origin the slope of that line is your Es or secant modulus


Is 25000 secant modulus better or worse than 120000 secant modulus?

that depends; if you are worried about deflection under load the higher the better to reduce deflection; but if you are worried about stress under temperature or constant input deflection, the lower the better.


What is the difference between deformation modulus and Young's modulus?

Young Modulus is the slope of the stress-strain diagram in the linear elastic region. This is the most common use of modulus. As the material goes non-linear in the stress strain curve, thre slope will get increasingly lower. In this case one connects the end points of the stress strain diagram at the point of interest with a straight line. The slope of that straight line is the secant modulus.


Does trignometry secant relate to circles secant?

yes


How do you spell secant?

That is the correct spelling of the geometric term "secant."


Is a secant-secant angle is a central angle of a circle?

Sometimes


What is a secant of a circle?

a secant is a line containing a chord. A secant is a line that intersects the circle twice(or passes through a circle)


Where is the tangent secant angle on a circle?

The tangent secant angle is the angle between the tangent to a circle and the secant, when the latter is extended.


What is an secant in math?

Secant is a trignometric function. In a right triangle, the secant of an angle is the hypotenuse over the adjacent side. It is also the inverse of cosine. For example secant(x) = 1/cos(x)
