" The modulus of the elasticity of any substance is a column of the same substance, capable of producing a pressure on its base which is to the weight causing a certain degree of compression, as the length of the substance is to the diminution of its length. "
The Franklin Journal, and American Mechanics' Magazine - Page 336
1860
