A model for the anisotropic response of fibrous soft tissues using six discrete fibre bundles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The development of accurate constitutive models of fibrous soft-tissues is a challenging problem. Many consider the tissue to be a collection of fibres with a continuous distribution function representing their orientations. A novel discrete fibre model

Predictive model for fibre yield estimation of tossa jute (Corchorus olitorius) in India

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2021
The present study explores the possibility of developing statistical models for prediction of dry fibre yield of tossa jute (Corchorus olitorius) in India. Sixty plants of 110 days age were randomly selected from the study area, and their basal diameter

Miniaturized fibre‐top cantilevers on etched fibres [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, 2016
SummaryFibre‐top probes are self‐aligned, all optical devices obtained by carving a cantilever on top of a 125‐m diameter single‐mode optical fibre. In this paper, we show that this design can be adapted to smaller fibres as well. We evaluated the performance of a 20‐m diameter probe in contact mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) and that of a 50‐m ...

Elastic fibres [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2002
Elastic fibres are essential extracellular matrix macromolecules comprising an elastin core surrounded by a mantle of fibrillin-rich microfibrils. They endow connective tissues such as blood vessels, lungs and skin with the critical properties of elasticity and resilience.
