What is another word for elastic modulus?
Pronunciation: [ɪlˈastɪk mˈɒdjʊləs] (IPA) 
Elastic modulus, also known as Young's modulus, is a measure of how much a material can stretch under a given amount of stress. There are a few different synonyms for this term, including modulus of elasticity and stiffness coefficient. These terms all describe the same fundamental concept, but may be used in different contexts depending on the field or industry in question. For example, engineers and physicists may prefer to use the term elastic modulus, while those in the materials sciences or manufacturing industries may use modulus of elasticity or stiffness coefficient. Regardless of the specific terminology used, these terms all describe the basic properties of a material that determine how it will respond to stress and strain.
