  5. 8. Numerical modeling of air-fiber flows

    Author : Jelena Andric; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aggregation; particle-level simulation; rheology; fiber; dry-forming; fiber suspension;

    Abstract : The dynamics of fiber suspensions are of great importance in applications such as the dry-forming process of pulp mats for use in hygiene products. In this forming process, fibers are transported in flowing air. The fibers interact with the fluid, and may interact with each other and interlock in flocs. READ MORE

  6. 9. Hybrid fiber preform fabrication using CO laser heating

    Author : Taras Oriekhov; Michael Fokine; Cruz José; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Preform; CO laser; silicon-core fiber; semiconductor-core fiber; specialty fiber; optical fiber.; Optik och fotonik; Optics and Photonics;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the development of a new prototyping technique for specialty optical fibers and covers all the fabrication steps from preform to fiber. The technique allows to produce fibers of a custom core structure and material composition, mainly focusing on semiconductor core fibers. READ MORE
