In this study, Silk Fibroin (SF)/Polycaprolactone (PCL) composite nanofiber mats were fabricated using an electrostatic spinning technology employing different drum rotation speeds. The morphology and tensile performance of the resulting nanofiber mats were characterized using thermal field emission scanning electron microscopy, multi-layer image fusion technology, pore size distribution analysis and uniaxial and biaxial tensile tests. The analytical results showed that the drum rotation speed had little effect on the diameter of the nanofibers, but it did effect the physical orientation of the nanofibers. When the drum rotating speed was lower than 2.38 m s-1, the nanofibers were randomly distributed, and there was no obvious mechanical anisotropy in the fiber mats. However, when the rotation speed was as high as 11.88 m s-1, the nanofibers were fully uniaxially oriented, which provided high mechanical anisotropy to the fiber mats. The distribution of the size of the aperture of the nanofiber mats was related to the distribution in the fiber orientation. If the degree of orientation of the fibrous layer was high, the variation in the individual fibers was low and the pore diameter of fibrous mats was smaller as a result of the centralized fiber distribution. In the case of the SF/PCL composite nanofiber mats fabricated with different drum rotation speeds, the variation in the mechanical performance of the resulting mat in biaxial tension was consistent with its performance in uniaxial tension; however, it was found that the fracture mechanism of fiber mats varied in biaxial tension and uniaxial tension.

As part of a comprehensive study of microstructural and mechanical response of metals to uniaxial and biaxial deformations, the development of substructure in 1100 A1 has been studied over a range of plastic strain for two stress states.Specimens of 1100 aluminum annealed at 350 C were tested in uniaxial (UT) and balanced biaxial tension (BBT) at room temperature to different strain levels. The biaxial specimens were produced by the in-plane punch stretching technique. Areas of known strain levels were prepared for TEM by lapping followed by jet electropolishing. All specimens were examined in a JEOL 200B run at 150 and 200 kV within 24 to 36 hours after testing.The development of the substructure with deformation is shown in Fig. 1 for both stress states. Initial deformation produces dislocation tangles, which form cell walls by 10% uniaxial deformation, and start to recover to form subgrains by 25%. The results of several hundred measurements of cell/subgrain sizes by a linear intercept technique are presented in Table I.
