While collagen fibrils are understood to be the primary load-bearing elements in tendon, controversy still exists on how fibrils functionally transmit load from muscle to bone. Specifically, it's unclear whether fibrils are structurally continuous along the tendon length and bear load independently, or if they are discontinuous and transfer load through interfibrillar shear forces. To address this question, we investigated whether the multiscale mechanics of rat tail tendon fascicles is dependent on sample gauge length. We hypothesiz
