Extended data:

Bamboo is a typical creature with good mechanical properties in nature. A hurricane can easily blow away waist-high trees, but it won't break bamboo. The main reasons are as follows:

(1) Bamboo fiber has high strength, good elasticity and low density, and its specific strength is 3-4 times that of steel, so it has high tensile strength and compressive strength.

(2) The cross section of bamboo is annular, the outer curved surface is in tension, and the inner curved surface is in compression, so it has strong bending rigidity;

(3) The outer hoop and the inner partition at the slub can increase the bearing area and improve the lateral bearing capacity of the bamboo tube.
