Effect of random fiber networks on bubble growth in gelatin hydrogels

Abstract

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.
