Could you get a similar effect by cutting dimples or notches in patterns (like a helical line of small conical holes) along the whole length in a sleeve instead of using separate pieces and infer overall curve shape? Or do the segments need to be cut completely through? |

The catch is any notch you make will weaken the material significantly and you'll have fatigue failures. That's the sneaky part of using a flexible sleeve, you don't introduce any undesired weaknesses.
