In a previous work, we described the simulation tool (FOPS 3D) (Khankin et al., 2001) which can simulate the full three-dimensional\r\ngeometrical structure of a fiber and the propagation of a light beam sent through it. In this paper we are focusing on three\r\nmajor points: the first concerns the improvements made with respect to the simulation tool and the second, optimizations implemented\r\nwith respect to the calculations� efficiency. Finally, the major research improvement from our previous works is the\r\nsimulation results of the optimal absorbance value, as a function of bending angle for a given uncladded part diameter, that\r\nare presented; it is suggested that fiber-bending may improve the efficiency of recording the relevant measurements. This is the\r\nthird iteration of the FOPS development process (Mann et al., 2009) which was significantly optimized by decreasing memory\r\nusage and increasing CPU utilization.
