Stress-stabilized sub-isostatic fiber networks in a rope-like limit
Sadjad Arzash, Jordan L. Shivers, Albert J. Licup +2
The mechanics of disordered fibrous networks such as those that make up the extracellular matrix are strongly dependent on the local connectivity or coordination number. For biopol…

Elasticity of fibrous networks under axial prestress
Mahsa Vahabi, Abhinav Sharma, Albert James Licup +4
We present theoretical and experimental studies of the elastic response of fibrous networks subjected to uniaxial strain. Uniaxial compression or extension is applied to extracellu…
