The Cauchy stress components σ 1, σ 2, plotted in terms of fibre stretch λ f. Tissue damage occurs at the stretches when the stresses peak. In cases G, I and J, damage occurs in fibres only since both specimen are damaged at the same fibre stretch. However, in case H, some damage must exist in the matrix as the two samples are damaged at different fibre stretches.
