Volume Elasticity<br />
Not all deformations are linear. Sometimes an applied<br />
stress F/A results in a decrease of volume. . In such<br />
cases, there is a bulk modulus B of elasticity.<br />
Volume stress F A<br />

Volume strain V<br />
V<br />
The bulk modulus is is negative<br />
because of of decrease in in V.
