Deformation and Damage of Random Fibrous Networks

Sozumert, Emrah; Farukh, Farukh; Sabuncuoglu, Baris; Demirci, Emrah; Acar, Memis; Pourdeyhimi, Behnam; Silberschmidt, Vadim V. (Article)

Fibrous networks are encountered in various natural and synthetic materials. Typically, they have random microstructures with complex patterns of fibre distribution. This microstructure, together with significant (in many ...
Notches in fibrous materials: micro-mechanisms of deformation and damage

Sozumert, E; Farukh, Farukh; Sabuncuoglu, Baris; Demirci, Emrah; Acar, Memis; Pourdeyhimi, Behnam; Silberschmidt, Vadim V. (Article)

Fibrous networks are ubiquitous structures for many natural materials, such as bones and bacterial cellulose, and artificial ones (e.g. polymer-based nonwovens). Mechanical behaviour of these networks are of interest to ...
Numerical analysis of progressive damage in nonwoven fibrous networks under tension

Farukh, Farukh; Demirci, Emrah; Sabuncouglu, Baris; Acar, Memis; Pourdeyhimi, Behnam; Silberschmidt, Vadim V. (Article)

Understanding a mechanical behaviour of polymer-based nonwoven materials that include largestrain deformation and damage can help to evaluate a response of nonwoven fibrous networks to various loading conditions. Here, ...
