All Fiber is Not Fiber

Current Gastroenterology Reports, 2022
Epidemiologic studies and clinical trials have demonstrated the benefits of dietary fiber. This occurs through a combination of the physiochemical properties of fiber and through microbial fermentation that occurs in the colon which result in the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA). The purpose of this review is to highlight the physiochemical

Fiber–fiber interaction in concentrated suspensions: Disperse fibers

Journal of Rheology, 1999
A hypothesis for fiber–fiber interaction in planar randomly oriented concentrated fiber suspensions is proposed and tested. The idea is that at sufficiently high fiber concentrations, friction and lubrication at fiber–fiber contact points are the dominant interaction mechanisms.

Strength of composites with long-aligned fibers: fiber–fiber and fiber–crack interaction

Composites Part B: Engineering, 1998
Abstract This paper presents a finite element formulation of elasticity to model elastic fracture in composites with long aligned fibers. We have employed a B-bar type approach which is applicable to compressible as well as nearly incompressible material systems.

Fiber and Cancer

Medical Oncology and Tumor Pharmacotherapy, 1986
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.

Fiber–fiber interaction in concentrated suspensions: Dispersed fiber bundles

Journal of Rheology, 1999
A 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.

Capturing hair assemblies fiber by fiber

ACM SIGGRAPH Asia 2009 papers, 2009
Hair 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.

Fibers and More Fibers

Science News, 1966
> 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 ...

Specialty Fibers for Fiber-optic Sensors

Optical Fiber Communication Conference, 2014
The paper describes optical fibers due to evanescent field and interferometric sensing, advanced temperature measuring and Raman sensors. Fiber applications will be combined with a focus on technology efforts for the fiber and sensor fabrication.
