Strain-driven criticality underlies nonlinear mechanics of fibrous networks
A. Sharma, A. J. Licup, R. Rens +4
Networks with only central force interactions are floppy when their average connectivity is below an isostatic threshold. Although such networks are mechanically unstable, they can…

Strain-controlled criticality governs the nonlinear mechanics of fibre networks
A. Sharma, A. J. Licup, R. Rens +4
Disordered fibrous networks are ubiquitous in nature as major structural components of living cells and tissues. The mechanical stability of networks generally depends on the degre…
