The elastic moduli of pyrolytic graphite, a polycrystalline material exhibiting large elastic anisotropy, have been measured by the ultrasonic pulse-echo method. In units of 1011 dyn/cm2, they are c11 = 5.21, c12 = 1.88, c13 = 1.80, c33 = 2.58, and c44 = 0.15.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
