Is water inelastic or elastic?

If by 'elastic', you mean stretchy, then no. Water, frozen or otherwise cannot stretch. When it's Ice it's solid, and is more likely to break if you try. As a liquid it cannot stretch, merely flow.


What is the opposite of elastic?

The opposite of elastic is inelastic, where a material cannot stretch and rebound. A material without this quality could be "inflexible" (rigid, stiff) or one that did not rebound, termed "plastic" (deformable).Elastic suggests that the material recovers its original shape after an applied load is removed. Plastic means that it doesn't recover its shape. Steel is an example of an elasticmaterial, when it is loaded within its capacity. It becomes plastic if it is overloaded. Concrete can be considered an elastic material only in compression.


Why wood is an elastic material?

Most of the materials can be considered elastic at least for a specific range. For example, Wood is elastic when we compare it with glass. Their modulus of elasticity cannot be calculate. However;It is anisotropic material. (its elasticity will be change if your loading parallel to its fibers or perpendicular.)

What is elastic analysis in beams means?

Elastic Analysis of a beam is the primary state of the beam before it yields, or reaches its yield stress governed by the material properties. After the beam yields it goes into a second state of which is the beams plastic state, from then on the beam cannot revert back to original shape, it is permanently deformed.
