Elasticity refers to the ability of a material to return to its original shape after being subjected to a load or stress. In other words, an elastic material will deform under load, but it will recover its original shape when the load is removed. The theory of elasticity is based on Hooke's Law, which states that the stress and strain in a material are directly proportional within the proportional limit of the material.
