Abstract: A computing device includes memory configured for storing executable instructions, a processor configured for executing the instructions, a foldable display layer configured for displaying information in response to the execution of the instructions, and a bend limit layer coupled to the foldable display layer and arranged substantially parallel to a display surface of the foldable display layer. The bend limit layer is configured to increase its stiffness non-linearly when a radius of a bend of the bend limit layer is less than a threshold radius of curvature of the foldable display layer, the threshold radius of curvature being greater than 1 mm and less than 20 mm.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a first layer including unidirectional first fibers oriented in a first direction and embedded within the first layer, where the first layer has a thickness of less than 25 μm and a second layer bound to the first layer, the second layer including unidirectional second fibers oriented in a second direction and embedded within the second layer, where the first layer has a thickness of less than 25 μm and where the first direction is nonparallel to the second direction.
