Electrospinning is a highly versatile method to process solutions or melts, mainly of
polymers, into continuous fibers with diameters ranging from a few micrometers to a few …

Electrospinning constitutes a unique technique for the production of nanofibers with
diameters down to the range of a few nanometers. In strong contrast to conventional fiber …

Paper is a material known to everybody. It has a network structure consisting of wood fibres
that can be mimicked by cooking a portion of spaghetti and pouring it on a plate, to form a …

We report the results of essentially ab initio simulations of creeping flow through large three-
dimensional random fiber webs that closely resemble fibrous sheets such as paper and …

The interaction of water with many biopolymers is known to rearrange their internal structure,
make them moisture sensitive, and influence their physical properties. We study amorphous …

Realistic lattice-Boltzmann simulations often require large amounts of computational
resources and are therefore executed on parallel systems. Generally, parallelization is …

A micromechanics model is proposed for the elasticity of planar fiber networks (FNs). The FN
is created by random deposition of linearly elastic straight rods within a region. The rods are …

Recent developments in the use of electrospun fibrous materials, for application as scaffolds
for tissue engineering and in the application of carbon fibrous materials in fuel cells, has …

For simulations of resin flow in fibre reinforced composite materials, Darcy's law is often
applied. It is dependent on the permeability of the fibre architecture. For an in-depth …

Das Elektrospinnen ist eine vielseitige Methode, um aus Lösungen und Schmelzen,
vorwiegend von Polymeren, kontinuierliche Fasern mit Durchmessern von wenigen …
