Direct-Reading Measurement of Fiber Length/Diameter Distributions
1999A new technique for classifying fibers according to length has opened up opportunities for improving fiber measurement technology. The classification principle is dielectrophoresis, which moves conductive fibers at a velocity proportional to the square of their length.

Influence of Fiber Length Distribution on Strength Efficiency of Fibers in Yarn
Textile Research Journal, 2002The tensile and tear strengths and hence the durability of a cotton fabric are greatly influenced by the length and strength of cotton fibers in addition to the fabric structure. This is so because fiber length to a large extent determines yam strength, which ultimately contributes to fabric strength.

Breeding for improved yarn quality: Modifying fiber length distribution
Industrial Crops and Products, 2013Abstract For the last two decades, cotton breeders have used HVI (High Volume Instrument) as their primary and often sole source of fiber quality data when making plant selections. Fiber data generated by Advanced Fiber Information System technology is also now available to plant breeders, and provides additional information on length characteristics

Study on the Characterization of Cotton Fiber Length Distribution
Advanced Materials Research, 2013In order to characterize cotton fiber length distribution, the probability density function with parameters were used to describe the fiber length frequency histograms. In this paper, four cotton fiber samples (bale, carded sliver, combed sliver and finisher sliver) were selected, and the fiber histograms by weight were measured by USTER AFIS Pro. Two-

Vapor grown carbon fibers: Modeling of filament length distributions
Journal of Analytical and Applied Pyrolysis, 1994Abstract A mechanistic model has been used to predict filament length distributions for vapor grown carbon fibers during the lengthening stage. Optimal values for the two parameters, α and Lt , in this model are obtained by curve-fitting one set of experimental results, giving excellent agreement.

Cotton Fiber Length Distribution— An Important Quality Factor
Textile Research Journal, 1955Recent cotton processing studies conducted by Textile Research Institute have demonstrated that the presence of a large number of short fibers in cotton causes appre ciable increases in processing wastes, excessively uneven rovings and yarns, less efficient spinning, and weaker yarns than would otherwise be expected. The present paper outlines various

Fiber Length Distribution in Cotton Processing: A Finite Mixture Distribution Model
Textile Research Journal, 2008This paper introduces a new approach to modeling and parameterizing cotton fiber length distribution. The approach uses finite mixture models to derive a parametric expression of the fiber length probability density function. The model was applied to a multitude of empirical length distributions and proved to adequately parameterize the complex ...

Textile Research Journal, 1976
The exact distribution and moments are derived for the length (mass) aggregate of fibers to be found within an interval L of a random fiber array as a direct function of the constituent fiber length distribution and the interval size L. The moments immediately facilitate computation of irregularity in terms of the coefficient of variation or the ...
