Tear strength of a laminated fabric for stratospheric airship under uniaxial and biaxial tests
Envelopes are main structures of stratospheric airships. They are usually made of laminated fabrics and prone to tearing, so it is significant to study their tear strengths.

Factors Associated With Tear Propagation and Patient-Reported Outcomes Following Personalized Exercise Therapy for Individuals With Symptomatic Rotator Cuff Tears [PDF]
Background: Exercise therapy is recommended for the initial treatment of individuals with rotator cuff tears but fails in 25% to 50% of cases. Determining the baseline factors associated with patient-reported outcomes and tear propagation immediately ...

Investigation on influence of time on tear behaviour of airship envelope
An experimental investigation on tearing behaviour of a coated fabric used in aerostat/airship has been undertaken. The tear tests have been conducted on bi-axial set up and pressurised cylinder. Tear propagation was studied by inducing dynamic tear on a
