This lecture covers the concepts of linear elastic deformation, modulus of elasticity, Poisson's ratio, and the behavior of materials under different types of stress. It also discusses the measurement methods for elastic properties, such as acoustic wave propagation and tensile testing. The instructor explains the significance of elastic limit, ductile polymers, ceramics, and the importance of material selection based on specific stiffness indexes and cost considerations.
