This sample included a different geometric replica of the Voronoi network.
In these tests the stiffness of each fiber was randomly chosen as either or .
The elastic behavior of this sample was not close to either of the stretch or bending dominated asymptotes in Fig. 2.
Indicates tests on networks of linear springs (zero bending, torsional and shear stiffness).
