A Wool Staple–length Meter

Journal of the Textile Institute, 1987
An instrument is described for the rapid measurement of the staple length of greasy wool. The staple travels through an optical plane of detection, where the ends of the staple are recognized. The distance travelled by the staple while in this plane is the staple length.

Correction of length discrepancies and angular deformities of the leg by Blount's epiphyseal stapling

European Journal of Pediatrics, 2001
The management of leg length difference (LLD) and angular deformities of the leg remains controversial. Numerous treatment options have been proposed over the past years depending on the patient's general condition, skeletal age, function, and degree and configuration of the deformity.

Fiber Length Development in Near‐Long Staple Upland Cotton

Crop Science, 2004
Advanced Fiber Information System (AFIS) mean fiber length by weight (Lw), fiber length development period (FLDP), and average daily fiber length growth rates (ADGR) were determined for four experimental strains and three cultivars of upland cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., in 1998 and 1999 in College Station, TX.

Variation in mohair staple length over the lifetime of Angora goats

Animal Production Science, 2013
Previous work has shown that, within an Angora goat flock, clean fleece weight is proportional to fleece-free liveweight (FFLwt)2/3 and for goats of the same age and cohort, the mean mohair fibre diameter is proportional to FFLwt1/3. This indicates that fibre length might not be related to the size of animals.

The components of staple tenacity and the determinants of length after carding

The Journal of The Textile Institute, 2018
A theoretical model for the tensile strength of staples of wool was used to propose variables that could be measured on thirty six fleece samples from Romney sheep genetically selected on the basis of wool staple tenacity. Other variables that have been noted elsewhere in the literature were also measured. Nearly 75% of the variation in staple tenacity

Variation in fibre and staple length over the body of the sheep

Australian Journal of Agricultural Research, 1959
Variation in staple length, fibre length, and the ratio between them was studied over 11 body sites on five Merino and five Border Leicester X Merino ewes. It was concluded that there are distinct but very slight trends in both staple and fibre length. Both decreased from neck to britch, and dorsally and ventrally from mid-lateral line. Fibres grown on

A Pneumatic Method of Measuring Cotton Fiber Staple Length

Textile Research Journal, 1958
A pneumatic device for measuring the mean and upper-half mean fiber lengths is described. Air is drawn through a cotton fiber beard (formed with two combs) placed over a narrow slit to form the fourth arm of a pneumatic Wheatstone bridge. It is shown that the unbalanced deflection of the "pneumatic galvanometer" across the bridge varies correctly with ...
