With the development of medical technology and increasing demands of healthcare
monitoring, wearable temperature sensors have gained widespread attention because of …

Fracture toughness characterizes the ability of a material to maintain a certain level of
strength despite the presence of a macroscopic crack. Understanding this tolerance for …

The flexible smart wearable device with low cost and high performance is highly desired but
rather challenging. In this work, a wearable temperature sensor was developed by …

The deformation and energy dissipation processes in a needle-punched polyethylene
nonwoven fabric were characterized in detail by a combination of experimental techniques …

Many materials of everyday use are fibrous and their strength is important in most
applications. In this work we study the dependence of the strength of random fiber networks …

A series of mechanical experiments were performed to quantify the strength and fracture
toughness of human amnion and chorion. The experiments were complemented with …

Fibrous networks are encountered in various natural and synthetic materials. Typically, they
have random microstructures with complex patterns of fibre distribution. This microstructure …

For fibrous materials such as nonwoven fabrics, paper and paperboards, inter-fiber bonds
play a critical role by holding fibers, thus providing internal cohesion. Being a physical …

A 3D numerical model is established to characterize the fibrous network materials and the
fracture behavior is investigated through the finite element method (FEM) analysis. The …

Graphene/textile stretchable devices have garnered significant attention in the field of
flexible wearable smart devices due to their inherent softness, flexibility, scalability, and …
