Many biological and soft artificial materials contain a random network of non-crosslinked fibers as their main structural component. The excluded volume interactions (contact forces) at fiber contacts control the mechanical behavior of these systems.

Materials with a stochastic fiber network as the main structural constituent are broadly encountered in engineering and in biology. These materials are characterized by multiscale heterogeneity and hence their properties evaluated numerically or expe

This article presents the displacement field produced by a point force acting on an athermal random fiber network (the Green function for the network). The problem is defined within the limits of linear elasticity, and the field is obtained numerical

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 on structural parameters such as the network density, cross-link density, f

We study the effect of inter-fiber adhesion on the mechanical behavior of cross-linked ran- dom fiber networks in two dimensions. To this end, we consider networks with connectiv- ity number, z , below, at, and above the isostaticity limit of the str

Mycelium, the root structure of fungi, grows naturally as a biodegradable filamentous material. This unique material has highly heterogeneous microstructure with pronounced spatial variability in density and exhibits strongly non-linear mechanical be

Many biological and engineering materials are made from fibers organized in the form of a stochastic crosslinked network, and the mechanics of the network controls the behavior of the material. In this work we investigate the strength of stochastic n

The development of yarns composed primarily from carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has been pursued recently with the intent of transferring to the yarn the exceptional mechanical and transport properties of individual nanotubes. In this work we study the proc

The mechanical behavior of random fiber networks containing inclusions is studied in this work. Inclusions are considered spherical and of radius comparable to the network mean segment length. Their stiffness is varied in a broad range, from very sof

This work investigates the mechanical behavior of mycelium composites reinforced with biodegradable agro-waste particles. In the composite, the mycelium acts as a supportive matrix which binds reinforcing particles within its filamentous network stru
