The Expansion of the Fibre Optic Network in Germany: Switching the Lights to Green by Cordelius Ilgmann

“…The federal government thereby implements a strategic decision that states like Schleswig-Holstein and Thuringia have made before: the basis for a sustainable digital infrastructure is a comprehensive optic fibre network to the building/home (FTTB/FTTH). As to state subsidies, the so-called “Betreibermodell” offers an efficient policy alternative to the current predominantly used system of state subsidies. …”

Model to Predict Polymer Fibre Diameter during Melt Spinning by Alexander M. Bier, Michael Redel, Dirk W. Schubert

“…Polymeric materials were evaluated with regard to their spinnability and respective fibre diameters. A modified single fibre spinning device was firstly used to derive a novel generalised model, utilising process parameters (die diameter, throughput, and stretching relevant take-up pressures) and material properties (zero shear viscosity) to predict the diameter of polymeric fibres on the basis of four different polymers. …”
