... the electrospinning process. This confounds attempts at quantifying strains exerted on adherent cells during electrospun matrix deformation. We have developed a novel mechanical test platform that allows deposition and tensile testing of electrospun fibers in a highly parallel arrangement to simplify mechanical...

... , as described in Sec. 2 ; however, the fiber stretch for axial tensile testing was less than 1.0. Thus, due to fiber compression, the fiber and shear FMI terms were zero for the axial direction, and it was assumed that the fibers had buckled. Therefore, only the experimental data oriented along circumferential...
