Effect of random fiber networks on bubble growth in gelatin hydrogels

Soft Matter, 2021, Advance Article DOI: 10.1039/D1SM00587A, PaperFuad Hasan, K. A. H. Al Mahmud, Md Ishak Khan, Wonmo Kang, Ashfaq Adnan Cavitation in soft biomaterials occurs at higher tensile pressure than pure water. A bubble needs to overcome the surface energy and the strain energy contribution from the random fiber network, which is the source of the extra tensile pressure.
