Experimental data about mechanical behaviour during compression tests for various matted fibres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A specific experimental device has been set up to test compressive mechanical behaviour of an assembly of fibres. Simple compression, as well as cyclic loading experiments and relaxation tests were performed. The experimental set up also allows to record
