Mechanical and fracture properties of steel fiber-reinforced geopolymer concrete
In this study, the effects of steel fibers on the mechanical properties of the geopolymer concrete – compressive, splitting tensile, and flexural strength; compressive elastic modulus; and fracture properties – were evaluated.

Oxytalan, Elaunin, And Elastic Fibers In The Human Skin
The elastic system of normal human skin was studied by light and electron microscopy. By light microscopy three different types of fibers were observed: oxytalan, elaunin and elastic. The most superficial ones (oxytalan fibers) are very thin and directed
