Calculate the bulk modulus (K).

Calculate the bulk modulus (K) from two of the three other elastic moduli to calculate the Lamés parameter. When more than two values are input, the function will default to using Young's (E) and shear (G) moduli. This assumes that the input values represent 3D material properties.

Usage

bulk(E = NULL, G = NULL, nu = NULL)

Arguments

E

Young's modulus (Pa).

G

Shear modulus (Pa).

nu

Poisson's ratio (Dimensionless).

Value

Returns an estimate for the bulk modulus (K).
