Assessing stiffness of nanofibres in bacterial cellulose hydrogels: Numerical-experimental framework

This work presents a numerical-experimental framework for assessment of stiffness of nanofibres in a fibrous hydrogel – bacterial cellulose (BC) hydrogel – based on a combination of in-aqua mechanical testing, microstructural analysis and finite-element (FE) modelling. Fibrous hydrogels attracted gr...
