The Protective Role of Bark and Bark Fibers of the Giant Sequoia (<i>Sequoiadendron giganteum</i>) during High-Energy Impacts

The influences of (1) a high fiber content, (2) the arrangement of fibers in fiber groups, and (3) a layered hierarchical composition of the bark of the giant sequoia (<i>Sequoiadendron giganteum</i>) on its energy dissipation capability are analyzed and discussed regarding the relevance...
