bulk modulus
bulk modulus n (General Physics) a coefficient of elasticity of a substance equal to minus the ratio of the applied stress (p) to the resulting fractional change in volume (dV/V) in a specified reference state (dV/V is the bulk strain). Symbol: K ThesaurusNoun | 1. | bulk modulus - the ratio of the change in pressure acting on a volume to the fractional change in volumecoefficient of elasticity, elastic modulus, modulus of elasticity - (physics) the ratio of the applied stress to the change in shape of an elastic body |
