Fiber–fiber interaction in concentrated suspensions: Dispersed fiber bundles
Journal of Rheology, 1999A model is proposed to describe the rheology of planar randomly oriented concentrated fiber bundle suspensions in a shear-thinning matrix. The approach is that, at high fiber volume fractions, the dominant interaction mechanisms are friction and lubrication at the fiber–fiber contact points.

The role of dietary fiber in colon cancer is still not clear. Ecological studies suggested a protective role for high fiber intake, but more recent analysis shows similar intakes of dietary fiber in populations with high or low incidence of colon cancer. Case-control studies generally do not support a protective role for fiber.

Capturing hair assemblies fiber by fiber
ACM SIGGRAPH Asia 2009 papers, 2009Hair models for computer graphics consist of many curves representing individual hair fibers. In current practice these curves are generated by ad hoc random processes, and in close-up views their arrangement appears plainly different from real hair.

(CLEO). Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics, 2005., 2005
Fiber lasers performance continues to increase due to advances in fiber design, with developments such as large mode area fibers, all-glass pump combiners, microstructured fiber and air-clad fiber allowing higher peak and average power.

Fiber fuse effect in microstructured fibers
OFC 2003 Optical Fiber Communications Conference, 2003., 2003In this paper we report the first observation of the fuse effect in a microstructured fiber. The fiber was fabricated by drilling holes in a silica rod and subsequent drawing of a fiber with output diameter of 125 /spl mu/m. The threshold intensity of laser radiation and some features of catastrophic damage differ strongly from those for conventional ...

> MODERN ALCHEMY is changing not base metals, but polymers into gold. The manufacture of polymer fibers is one of today's fastest-expanding industries. With increasing demands for fibers for clothing, tires, space applications and a variety of other needs, the consumption of both natural and man-made fibers has increased by leaps and bounds during the ...

Fiber sensors based on fiber gratings
2013 6th IEEE/International Conference on Advanced Infocomm Technology (ICAIT), 2013In this paper, we present two different types of pressure sensors including a high-sensitivity lateral pressure sensor and a temperature-independent differential pressure sensor by using fiber Bragg gratings to be encapsulated in a polymer-half-filled metal cylinder.
