The influence of the coconut fiber treated as reinforcement in PHB (polyhydroxybutyrate) composites

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated how the treatment of coconut fiber (CF) affected the fiber itself and the composites prepared with treated and in nature coconut fiber used as reinforcement in PHB (polyhydroxybutyrate) as a polymeric matrix.

WYPIWYG hyperelasticity for isotropic, compressible materials

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a WYPIWYG numerical procedure for compressible isotropic materials and motivate the formulation through an equivalent infinitesimal model, where the shape of stored energy is not given beforehand but computed numerically from experimental data solving the equilibrium equations.

Mechanical spectroscopy of filled gelatin gels

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of size, shape and phase volume on the shear storage and loss moduli of a model system of glass filled gelatin gels has been investigated by using well characterised samples of glass spheres, rods and irregular pieces of intermediate shape.
