    Effects of Fiber Sara Brann, Monica Martinez, Jihaan Garrett, Mary Watters, and Amanda Turcotte UMFK/UMA NUR 230 Fiber, with its chief contribution being to support healthy bowel movements, is known as a dietary necessity. Focusing on the benefits and negative effects, fiber is a unique substance that humans consume in various amounts on a daily basis (Harvard Health Publications, 2015). As with other substances too much may be harmful and too little could be detrimental. If a healthy

    The recommended AI intake for fiber is 25g/day for a woman. My average fiber intake is 36 g/day which is higher than the recommended value. Different vegetables, fruits, and whole grains from my diet are the rich sources of insoluble fiber. And I received insoluble fiber from eating apple, banana, citrus fruits, beans, and oats. I was successful to meet most of my vitamins and minerals requirements by eating different fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, and dairy products. My average vitamin

    owing to fiber optic technology. In 1979, AT&T filled the telecommunications industry with revolutionary ideas by developing a mode for data transmission using a light, called fiber optic cable. This mode produced a bandwidth of 44.736 Mbps and could multiplex 672 trunk circuits on one fiber alone (Cole, M. 2000). However, this development was merely the start of a huge extension to telecommunications, something that would transform the industry constantly. Although AT&T brought in fiber optic technology

    Copper Cable (Ethernet) versus fiber optics The topic we picked to do our presentation on is fiber optics versus cable, which is better for a company use and what are the future prospects of fiber optics and cable. We also talked about the history of DSL, broadband, fiber optics, and dial-up. There are both pros and cons with fiber optics and copper cable. The main point for our research is which would companies choose. During our research there was many obstacles because it was hard to say why

    Carbon fibre is a chemical compound that is composed of a long chain of carbon atoms bonded to each other using covalent bonds. The covalent bonds are formed under extreme conditions of heat and pressure and may combine a carbon compound with a piece of plastic or a polymer. The carbon occurs in very thin strands that have a diameter smaller than that of a human hair though it is credited to having the five times the tensile strength of steel and two times its stiffness although it the carbon compound

    simply a method of transmitting information from one place to another extremely fast. This is done by shooting pulses of light through an optical fibre. Creating the optical signal involving the use of a transmitter, relaying the signal along the fiber, ensuring that the signal does not become too distorted or weak, receiving the optical signal, and converting it into an electrical signal. An optic-fibre is a small fibre no thicker than a human hair, either made of glass or plastic that is transparent

    A fiber optic cable is a network cable that contains strands of glass fibers within an insulated casing. There are designed for very high-performance data networking, long distance and telecommunications. Compare with wired cables, fiber optic cables give higher bandwidth and can transmit data over longer distances. Fiber optic cables support world's internet, telephone systems and cable television. Fiber optic cables transmit signals using pulses of light generated by light-emitting diodes (LEDs)

    Multiplexing optical Oam modes in a Ring Fiber The Multiplexing OAM modes in a ring fiber are conceptually, LP Modes of higher order are composed of two fiber Engine Modes with different propagation constants. These two Modes Departs (Walk off) while propagating along the fiber, resulting in a highly Distorted Mode profile at the Detection End. In Contrast, when we combine two fiber engine modes properly the OAM Modes Can be Obtained. Compared with LP modes, OAM modes can better maintain the mode
