Hi Nancy,
Youngs Modulus is another name for Modulus of Elasticity [E], named so after
the first discoverer of the elastic behavior graphed in a stress-strain
diagram.
For non-creeping metals E is a unique constant; however, because the
creep-behavior of solder at the Ts we are using it it does not have a unique
stress-strain diagram or a constant E--they are T- and strain-rate-dependent
and you therefore have an infinite number of such diagrams/Es.
A crosshead is the moving [upper] clamp of a tensile test machine and its
rate of travel applying strain to the test specimen is referred to as
crosshead speed--it determines the strain rate.
