Introduction The purpose of this lab was to learn about the different types of fibers and the distinguishing characteristics of used to identify them. Natural fibers and man-made fibers were examined in this lab. The fibers tested were part of a multi-fiber fabric with the following arrangement: Acetate Cotton Nylon Silk Viscose (Rayon) Wool The first lab activity was to observe and record the characteristics of each of these fibers through a stain test, a microscope test, a solvent test, and a burn test

Fiber has become relevant evidence in incidents such as homicide, assault, or sexual offenses, in which cases cross-transfers between the clothing of the suspect and victim, or a hit-and-run victim to an automobile. Fiber may also become fixed in screens or glass break in the course of a burglary. There all types of fiber which humans depends on like natural and manufactured fibers with the introduction of cellulose acetate. Natural fibers are derived from animals or plant sources.

Natural fibers represent environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional reinforcing fibers (glass, carbon, kevlar). Because of their hollow and cellular nature, natural fibers perform as acoustic and thermal insulators and exhibit reduced bulk density [33, 34]. Some of the disadvantages and limitations of natural fibers, when used as reinforcement for composites, are related to the lack of proper interfacial adhesion, poor resistance to moisture absorption, limited processing temperature to

FIBER OPTIC SENSORS ABSTRACT: This paper presents a brief introduction on the basics and applications in fiber optic sensors. This innovation is one of the quickest developing advances in the cutting edge science. Various investigates have been directed in past decades utilizing fiber optic sensors with diverse strategies. Power, stage, and wavelength based fiber optic sensors are the most generally utilized sensor sorts. In this paper, a review of fiber optic sensors and their applications are

Fiber optics is a cable that is quickly replacing out-dated copper wires. Fiber optics is based on a concept known as total internal reflection. It can transmit video, sound, or data in either analog or digital form . Compared to copper wires it can transmit thousands of times more data (slide 2) . Some of its general uses are telecommunications, computing, and medicine. <br> <br>The very first "fiber" was made in 1870 by the British physicist John Tyndal. In this experiment that he showed to the

the strength of plant fibers Objectives: To develop knowledge and understanding of the strength of plant fiber in a plant stem. To develop problem solving and experimental skills, for example, information is accurately processed, using calculations where appropriate, experimental procedures are planned, designed and evaluated properly, the use of microscopes, producing valid results and recording results. To develop techniques of measuring the size of plant fibers under microscope using

Fiber Optics What are Fiber Optics? Fiber optics are thin transparent fibers of glass or plastic enclosed by a material of a lower index of refraction and that transmit light throughout their length by internal reflections. Real fiber optic cables are made out of very pure glass, glass so pure that if it were miles thick, light would still be able to pass through. The fiber optic strand, although thin in diameter, is stretched to miles in length. Therefore only the purest of glass would be

Optical fiber cables and connectors are a very essential part of the infrastructure in the world today. Because of the many advantages the optical fiber cables and connectors have over the old age traditional coaxial cables that were used in the olden days, fiber cables have outdone the performance the communications industry has ever reached in the past. Optical fiber cable is a cable that contains one or more than one optical fibers. These fibers carry data and information signal in the form of

part of polymer building composites can be isolated into two classes, to be specific synthetic and natural fibers. Synthetic fibers are the most widely recognized. Albeit there are numerous sorts of engineered filaments, glass, carbon and aramid strands speak to the most essential. Kevlar is a sweet-smelling polyamide or aramid fiber presented in mid 1970s by DuPont. It was the first natural fiber with adequate elasticity and modulus to be utilized as a part of cutting edge composites (Dupont.com, 2015)
