“…Elastocapillary effects can be particularly important when considering thin elongated structures, such as fibers, whose length can be several order of magnitude larger then their diameter; such fibers are therefore prone to bend [9,16,17,18,19]. In addition, fibers, rigid or flexible, can be found in a variety of applications such as in wet hair [6], in the textile industry [20,21,22], in filters [23,24], fog-harvesting nets [25,26,27] or insulation materials such as glass wool [28,29].…”
