… hexagonal lattice geometries but could easily be adapted to solve any lattice based
microstructure, such as anti-resonance or suspended-core microstructure fibres. In this
paper we present a simple and flexible method to model the structure of a hollow core
microstructured fibre. First, the method structure and governing equations are outlined; we
follow this with a simple set of results and compare them with Scanning Electron
Micrographs (SEMs) of real HCPBGFs. Finally we comment on the capabilities of this …
A method to track the evolution of a microstructured fibre, from initial preform to final fibre geometry, is presented. Up scaling to longer lengths, new structure development and effects of material parameters can all be explored with this model.
