Flex Fatigue of Polymeric Optical Fibers
Original language description
In the side emitting plastic optical fibers the light leaks out from their surface. This sidelight can be used for creation of optically active textile structures providing opportunities to highlight people and objects without the need for external exposure. Due to the transmission loss, the intensity of radiation emitted in any direction decays exponentially along the fiber axis with increasing distance from the light source. One important characteristic of polymer optical fibers is their tendency to weaken and changing side light emission capability under mechanical deformation during use. This deformation can be simulated as repeated bending under prescribed load. The main aim of this contribution is evaluation of flex fatigue of side emitting plastic optical fibers based on the number of repeated bending cycles till break FC. The fibers with different diameter are tested. The distribution of mean number of cycles till break is modeled by three parameter Weibull distribution.
