    Carbon fibers are exceptionally stronger than carbon bulk material. These fibers have very small diameters, typically ranging from 4 to 10 micrometers, which in turn yield a relatively small fiber surface area. Flaws such as dislocations, cracks, and impurities, are virtually inexistent in a specimen of such size, and so the structure is virtually defect free. Because the fibers are kept separated from one another by the matrix, they do not make contact, and crack propagation from fiber to fiber…

    A final study that was explored focused on the importance of finite element analysis for analyzing the effects of composite patching on CCT. According to [S3], FE analysis is helpful because it leads to a direct computation of both the SIF and stress-distribution field. This study used 2024-T3 aluminum with a glass and epoxy composite patch. Cyclic stress was applied to patched and unpatched aluminum specimens, and the Mindlin FE Approach was used to analyze the resulting data. Results showed…

    that parallel fiber-to-Purkinje cell synapses were strengthened during learning; in contrast, Albus postulated that the parallel fiber-to-Purkinje cell synapses would weaken (he also thought they could strengthen and that the parallel fiber-to-stellate cell synapses were also modifiable.) Albus defended his synaptic weakening argument by pointing out that the parallel fibers should be trained to emulate the post-complex spike pause and not the excitatory phase of the climbing fiber-induced…
