Author(s): Patrick B. Warren, Robin C. Ball, and Raymond E. Goldstein The problem of how staple yarns transmit tension is addressed within abstract models in which the Amontons-Coulomb friction laws yield a linear programing (LP) problem for the tensions in the fiber elements. We find there is a percolation transition such that above the percolation threshold the tran... [Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 158001] Published Fri Apr 13, 2018
