Wavefront shaping and deep learning in fiber endoscopy

Fiber endoscopy plays an important role in the clinical diagnosis and treatment processes involved in modern medicine. Thin fiber probes can relay information from confined places in the human body that are inaccessible for conventional bulky microscopes. ...

Rectified phase-matching equation for fiber mode converter gratings using two-mode interference

Soham Basu

The resonance wavelength, where a fiber mode converter grating written using periodic external perturbations achieves phase matching, is both a critical design parameter and a device parameter. However, a method to precisely predict the resonance wavelengt ...

Distributed optical fiber sensing based on frequency-scanned phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry

Li Zhang

Unlike traditional sensing schemes which rely on discrete point sensors that perform measurements at predetermined positions, distributed optical fiber sensing is a general technique that enables to continuously gather information (typically temperature an ...

Cellulose phosphorylation comparison and analysis of phosphorate position on cellulose fibers

David Lyndon Emsley, Jayasubba Reddy Yarava, Michel Bardet, Julien Bras

Chemical modifications of cellulose fibers as pretreatment for cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) production have been investigated to improve the production process and the quality of obtained cellulosic nanomaterial. In this study, phosphorylation of cellulose ...

Super-elastic multi-material optical fibers for health-care applications

Fabien Sorin, Wei Yan, Alexis Gérald Page, Yunpeng Qu, Dang Tùng Nguyen, Andreas Leber, Nicola Bartolomei

Stretchable optical and electronic fibers constitute increasingly important building blocks for a myriad of applications, particularly in robotics, soft prosthesis, surgical tools and implants, and smart medical textiles. The integration of multi-material ...

Dynamically reconfigurable DEAs incorporating shape memory polymer fibers

Herbert Shea, Bekir Aksoy

We present variable stiffness dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs), combining a single DEA actuator with embedded shape memory polymer (SMP) fibers, which can be electrically addressed to locally reduce the stiffness by a factor of 100. The device accommo ...

Influence of the stacking sequence on the low-energy impact resistance of flax/PA11 composite

Yann Albert Gérard Lebaupin

In this paper, the low-energy impact behavior of a fully biobased composite made of bio-sourced polyamide 11 resin reinforced with flax fibers was investigated. Different composite laminates were studied in order to determine the stacking sequence effects ...

Recycled Glass Fiber Composites from Wind Turbine Waste for 3D Printing Feedstock: Effects of Fiber Content and Interface on Mechanical Performance

Rodolphe Henri, Kazem Fayazbakhsh

This research validates the viability of a recycling and reusing process for end-of-life glass fiber reinforced wind turbine blades. Short glass fibers from scrap turbine blades are reclaimed and mixed with polylactic acid (PLA) through a double extrusion ...

Transport of flexible fibers in confined microchannels

François Gallaire, Mathias Simon Daniel Bechert, Jean Cappello

When transported in confined geometries rigid fibers show interesting transport dynamics induced by friction with the top and bottom walls. Fiber flexibility causes an additional coupling between fiber deformation and transport and is expected to lead to m ...

Particle size selection in capillary instability of locally heated coaxial fiber

François Gallaire, Pierre-Thomas Paul Brun, Saviz Mowlavi, Isha Shukla

Harnessing fluidic instabilities to produce structures with robust and regular properties has recently emerged as a new fabrication paradigm. This approach is exemplified in the work of Gumennik et al. [Nat. Commun. 4, 2216 (2103)], in which the authors fa ...
