The irony of calling a 200+ year old concept "Young" modulus isn't lost on materials scientists. Named after Thomas Young in 1807, this measure of stiffness has been stretching our patience longer than most lab equipment warranties. The wide-eyed cat perfectly embodies every engineering student's face when they realize they've been calculating elastic deformations using principles older than their great-great-great grandparents.
