Abstract

Not with standing the complexity of production of jute fibre filaments computer simulation of four types of frequency distribution of jute fibre length depending on method of sampling and testing is presented. A study of fibre length-frequency distribution depending on methods of sampling and testing may lead to a general form of Gamma distribution function. The parameters in the mathematical formulae may serve as characteristics of condition giving the benchmark for valid experiment.
