For the ordered hexagonal networks we first started with an ordered hexagonal network with each edge being made up of one polymer. To break the symmetry of the network, a single polymer was removed to create a tensided ring. Over a time-scale of 100 µs this hexagonal network was stretched sinusoidally with a time period of 5.00 µs per cycle and the cycles increasing in amplitude from 10.0 % to 50.0 %. This method has been used by to mimic damage due to stretching in the ocular lens capsule.
