In order to construct B-ISDN, it is inevitable to introduce optical fiber of low loss and wide bandwidth. Coincidently, high count optical fiber cable is solely important to form optical subscriber network. The best structure of high count optical fiber cable to achieve multi-splicing as well as high density at the same time is the one of taking optical ribbon as a unit of accomodation. However, since optical ribbon has its own width. optical loss due to length difference during the bending of ribbon cable unit occurs in relatively easy way. Therefore, care should be taken during its manufacturing and storage. In t\1::; paper, strain, bending radius and lateral pressure of each fiber in ribbon due to the bending of ribbon cable unit are caculated theoretically. Hence, we have measured optical loss of each fiber as function of unit bending radius, when we bent the ribbon cable unit on the various reel. We found that the result accords well with the theoretical analysis. The result shows the importance to determine proper radius of reel used in ribbon cable manufacturing and storage. orage.

In this work, we investigated on the white-colored ribbon fiber synthesized from GaN powder. We convinced the formation of monoclinic phase $\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$from the X-ray diffraction pattern on ribbon fiber. The 10 K PL spectrum consisted with the strong emission band caused by self-activated optical center at 3.464 eV with the full-width at half maximum of 48 meV and the impurity related emission bands. Through this work, the optical properties and the electrical conductivity of $\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$, it will be useful for the fabrication of optoelctronic devices operating in visible spectrum region.

In this study, a composite material frame was designed to increase the energy harvesting efficiency of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) ribbon harvesters which are installed inside smart shoes. In order to minimize the amount of deformation in the load direction of the frame, it was designed using carbon continuous fiber composites and its complex shaped structure was manufactured using a 3D printer. In order to calculate the amount of deformation of the insole and midsole of the shoes under the condition of the load generated during walking, the insole and midsole were modeled using the distributed spring elements. Using finite element analysis, the elongation of ribbon-type harvesters mounted on smart shoes was calculated during walking. It is expected that the predicted elongation of the harvester can be utilized to increase the energy harvesting efficiency of smart shoes.

The examination for the changes of structures and mechanical properties in directionally solidified Al-Fe-Ni alloys containing the small amount of Fe and Ni was carried out by the varying the composition and solidification rate R of alloy, provided that the temperature gradient was 80 .deg.C/cm. The result were obtained as follows. A) In proportion to the increase of the solidification rate (R), the crystallized phase of this alloy was changed from the Ribbon-type structure to the Rod-type structure. B) The strength was rapidly increased in the changing process of composite shape from the Ribbon-type to the Rod-type with the solidification rate (R) increasing. C) The fiber stress (${\sigma}^f$) and Young's modulus ($E_f$) calculated for the Rod-type structure were 220 kg/$mm^2$ and 11, 800 kg/$mm^2$ respectively, which were in good accord with the rule of Mixtures.

Magnetostrictions of metallic glass ribbons were measured by fiber-optic Mach-Zehnder interferometry. The saturation magnetostrictions measured here are accurate to within 10%. For accurate measurements the fibers in the ribbons were uncoated, the ribbons were flattened before bonding, and two passes of fiber in the sensing arm were bonded to a single layer metallic glass ribbon at the ends only. Various factors affecting the accuracy of the measurements were also discussed.

It is well known residual gum exists in degummed or rotted hemp fibers. Gum removal results in improvement in fiber fineness and the properties of the resultant hemp yams. However, it is not known what correlation if any exists between the residual gum content in retted hemp fibers and the fiber fineness, described in terms of fiber width in this paper. This study examined the mean width and coefficient of variation (CV) of fiber width of seventeen chemically rotted hemp samples with reference to residual gum content. The mean and CV of fiber width were obtained from an Optical fiber diameter analyser (OFDA 100). The linear regression analysis results show that the mean fiber width is directly proportional to the residual gum content. A slightly weaker linear correlation also exists between the coefficient of variation of fiber width and the residual gum content. The strong linear co-relation between the mean of fiber width and the residual gum content is a significant outcome, since testing for fiber width using the OFDA is a much simpler and quicker process than testing the residual gum content. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) reinforces the OFDA findings. SEM micrographs show a flat ribbon like fiber cross-section hence the term \"fiber width\" is used instead of fiber diameter. Spectral differences in the untreated dry decorticated skin samples and chemically treated and subsequently carded samples indicate delignification. The peaks at $1370cm^{-1}$, $1325cm^{-1}$, $1733cm^{-1}$, and $1600cm^{-1}$ attributed to lignin in the untreated samples are missing from the spectra of the treated samples. The spectra of the treated samples are more amine-dominated with some of the OH character lost.cter lost.

Objective: To analyze the fatigue resistance, debonding force, and failure type of fiber-reinforced composite, polyethylene ribbon-reinforced, and braided stainless steel wire lingual retainers in vitro. Methods: Roots of human mandibular central incisors were covered with silicone, mimicking the periodontal ligament, and embedded in polymethylmethacrylate. The specimens (N = 50), with two teeth each, were randomly divided into five groups (n = 10/group) according to the retainer materials: (1) Interlig (E-glass), (2) everStick Ortho (E-glass), (3) DentaPreg Splint (S2-glass), (4) Ribbond (polyethylene), and (5) Quad Cat wire (stainless steel). After the recommended adhesive procedures, the retainers were bonded to the teeth by using flowable composite resin (Tetric Flow). The teeth were subjected to 10,00,000 cyclic loads (8 Hz, 3 - 100 N, $45^{\circ}$ angle, under $37{\pm}3^{\circ}C$ water) at their incisoproximal contact, and debonding forces were measured with a universal testing machine (1 mm/min crosshead speed). Failure sites were examined under a stereomicroscope (${\times}40$ magnification). Data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance. Results: All the specimens survived the cyclic loading. Their mean debonding forces were not significantly different (p > 0.05). The DentaPreg Splint group (80%) showed the highest incidence of complete adhesive debonding, followed by the Interlig group (60%). The everStick Ortho group (80%) presented predominantly partial adhesive debonding. The Quad Cat wire group (50%) presented overlying composite detachment. Conclusions: Cyclic loading did not cause debonding. The retainers presented similar debonding forces but different failure types. Braided stainless steel wire retainers presented the most repairable failure type.
