What is the relationship between Young's Modulus and temperature?

AI Thread Summary
Temperature increases lead to greater material extension under specific loads, but quantifying this relationship requires understanding thermoelasticity, which involves complex concepts from nonequilibrium thermodynamics and nonlinear field theories. The discussion highlights the difficulty in finding straightforward numerical relationships for this phenomenon. Resources such as a faculty webpage and a downloadable PDF are provided for further exploration of thermoelasticity. These materials may offer clearer insights into the numerical aspects of temperature-related material extension. Understanding these principles is essential for applications in engineering and materials science.

I know that as temperature increases the extension of a material under a specific load increases too, but what is the direct relationship in terms of numbers? I've searched high and low for an answer but have found none!

Thanks in advance for your help xx

Thread 'Thermo Hydrodynamic Effect'
Vídeo: The footage was filmed in real time. The rotor takes advantage of the thermal agitation of the water. The agitation is uniform, so the resultant is zero. When the aluminum cylinders containing frozen water are immersed in the water, about 30% of their surface is in contact with the water, and the rest is thermally insulated by styrofoam. This creates an imbalance in the agitation: the cold side of the water "shrinks," so that the hot side pushes the cylinders toward the cold...
