Comparison of Two Methods for Fiber Diameter Measurement and a System Design for the Study of Composite Reliability

摘要

This thesis involves the design and construction of an integrated fiber diameter measurement and strength test system for the purpose of conducting a study of the reliability of a composite material. The emphasis of this thesis is placed on the comparison of two methods of fiber diameter measurement using the light diffraction pattern formed by the obstruction of a laser beam by a fiber sample. Keywords: Methods of fiber diameter measurement using laser diffraction pattern, and Integrated system.
