Sentence examples for stiff fiber from inspiring English sources

Suitable agents improve the bonding between the stiff fiber and matrix enabling more efficient stress transfer.

This method is used to investigate the deformation of an elasto-plastic ductile matrix surrounding an isolated stiff fiber, the grain size of the material being slightly smaller than the fiber length.

Tubuliform silk, by contrast, is a stiff fiber that can store a large amount of energy [ 3].

This leads us to believe that a further increase of the silk-like block or a decrease of the hydrophilic random coiling block could give controlled bundling of the protein filaments, leading to extremely long and stiff fiber bundles, more faithfully mimicking the structure of collagen bundles in the extracellular matrix.

However, conventional rheometers are not suitable for testing stiff fiber-reinforced materials.

In this study, a parallel plate rheometer that is capable of evaluating the rheology of stiff fiber-reinforced cement paste and mortar systems was designed and built.

Stiff fiber-bundle models can then be viewed as systems with large scale heterogeneities along the interface (i.e., large a and small L) for which the damage zone is notably extended.

Recent models explain this nonlinear behavior as an intrinsic feature of disordered networks of stiff fibers.

In this work, By using suitable stiff fibers to withstand large horizontal pre-stretch, up to 142% linear actuation strain is achieved.

We observe that the fiber composites exhibit significant softening upon achieving the critical strain at which the stiff fibers cooperatively buckle into wavy patterns.

When thinking about a fiber network formed of long, flexible fibers or a network of short, stiff fibers, it is easy to see that breaking the network of long fibers requires more force than the short fiber case: If the concentrations of these two suspensions are the same, the suspension of long fibers has more interfiber connections to be broken.
