33、T57 TS 6-62- 1 1 Introduction 1.1 Intent This Informative Test Method (ITM) describes a method for characterizing the lower portion of the distribution of dynamic tensile failure stresses of a population of glass optical fiber. The result is a probability curve that can be used as a guide in reliabi
34、lity design. The curve can also be used to validate assumptions relative to the proof test and other fiber handling procedures. 1.2 Scope The method is generally destructive. A sample of a population is tested. The accuracy of inferences that are drawn depends on the sampling frequency and the degre
35、e to which the sample is representative. The probability curve is presented in the format of a Weibull distribution. The validity of a Weibull assumption should, however, be tested. Such tests are outside the scope of this method. The strength distribution can be inferred from the failure stress dat
36、a with certain assumptions about the flaw growth mechanism and the parameters that describe it. These inferences are illustrated in the annexes, but are outside the scope of the method. This test method applies to a population characteristic that is not specifiable, at least at the present time. The
37、refore, this test method shall not be called out in any TIA specification document. 1.3 Background The method tests the strength of several hundreds of sections of fiber by applying dynamic tensile stress up to some predetermined level. The fraction of the total number of sections that fail and the
38、stress levels at which failure occurs is recorded and summarized as a statistical distribution. This is very similar to FOTP-28. The main difference is that with this method, all sections are tested to a maximum, fixed stress, leading to failure in some specimens. Since not all specimens fail, this
39、is called censored data. Other differences are the 5 EIA TSBb2-1 94 3234b00 0559531 993 = TSB-62- 1 sample size, gauge length, and stress rate. These factors reduce the time required for the extensive testing required to evaluate the lower portion of the strength distribution. Variable prooftest str
40、ess is another approach to characterizing the distribution of interest. FOTP-31 is applied at various stress levels. The failure rate at each level provides some information about the underlying distribution. Detailed prooftester information and flaw growth assumptions can be used to compute probabi
41、lity and stress points that are theoretically equivalent to some of the points in the curve resulting from ITM-1. 1.4 Other The equipment described in this document has been patented by Corning Incorporated, U.S. Patent No. 50761 04.

Figure 3 shows the distribution obtained with FOTP-28 at 4Ydminute strain rate, overlaid with the distribution measured with this procedure. The lack of overlap is due to the difference in strain rates. The distri
