Journal Article•DOI Estimation of dissolution rate from in vivo studies of synthetic vitreous fibers. Walter Eastes, Russell M. Potter, John G. Hadley - Show less +2 more 01 Jan 2000-Inhalation Toxicology 22 Citations	The dissolution rate constant for a fiber may be extracted from the decrease in long fiber diameter observed in certain intratracheal instillation experiments or from the observed long fiber retention in short-term biopersistence studies.
Journal Article•DOI Double-blind trial of a high dietary fiber, mixed grain cereal in patients with chronic constipation and hyperlipidemia HS Odes, H Lazovski, I Stern, Zecharia Madar - Show less +3 more 01 Sep 1993-Nutrition Research 24 Citations	In summary, the fiber cereal appears to be a suitable short-term treatment for constipation, although its long-term efficacy requires further study.
Journal Article•DOI Effects of crystalline subunit size on silk fiber mechanics Murat Cetinkaya, Senbo Xiao, Frauke Gräter, Frauke Gräter - Show less +3 more 21 Sep 2011-Soft Matter 22 Citations	The presented approach is a versatile tool in artificial fiber design since it does not require any empirical parameters and it is similarly applicable to other semicrystalline polymeric systems or composite materials.
Journal Article•DOI The Carrier Effect in the m-Aramid Fiber/Cationic Dye/Benzyl Alcohol System Axel Nechwatal, Volker Rossbach - Show less +1 more 01 Sep 1999-Textile Research Journal 26 Citations	In order to be effective, it is not sufficient that the sorption of the carrier takes place only in the interior of the fiber; it must also take place on the fiber surface.
Proceedings Article•DOI Effect of chemical stripping on the strength and surface morphology of fused silica optical fiber Vincenzo V. Rondinella, M. John Matthewson - Show less +1 more 01 Mar 1994 22 Citations	It does, however, remove a surface layer from the aged fiber, probably of hydrated silica, which does not contribute to the strength.
Open access•Journal Article•DOI Relaxation of interkinetochore tension after severing of a k-fiber depends on the length of the k-fiber stub Ana Milas, Iva M. Tolić - Show less +1 more 23 Mar 2016 25 Citations	These findings imply that a long k-fiber stub, which remains connected to the bridging fiber, withstands the interkinetochore tension and prevents relaxation of the interkinetochore distance, whereas a short stub does not.
Journal Article•DOI An investigation into the relationship between internal stress distribution and a change of poly-p-phenylenebenzobisoxazole (PBO) fiber structure Tooru Kitagawa, Kazuyuki Yabuki - Show less +1 more 15 Nov 2000-Journal of Polymer Science Part B 21 Citations	It indicated that the crystalline size does not vary but the ordering of periodicity in the crystal lattice starts to loosen as applied stress to the fiber is increased.
Journal Article•DOI Relationship of Tensile Strength of Glass Fibers to Diameter William H Otto 02 Jun 2006-Journal of the American Ceramic Society 78 Citations	Experimental evidence is presented which shows that, contrary to generally accepted belief, the strength of a fiber does not depend on fiber diameter.
