1. Modelling Mechanics of Fibre Network using Discrete Element Method
Sammanfattning : Low-density fibre networks are a fundamental structural framework of everyday hygiene products, such as baby diapers, incontinence and feminine care products, bathroom tissue and kitchen towels. These networks are a random assembly of fibres, loosely bonded and oriented in the plane direction. LÄS MER
2. Extrusion processing of wood-based biocomposites
Sammanfattning : Interest in biocomposite materials and their use in various applications has been growing steadily over the past 10-15 years. Increasing environmental awareness and lower material costs are the main driving forces for using renewable materials, such as wood and cellulose fibers, as reinforcement in polymer composites.

3. Baggy paper webs : Effect of uneven moisture and grammage profiles in different process steps
Sammanfattning : One of the problems encountered in paper converting is caused by the occurrence of "baggy webs", which essentially is when the tension profile of the paper web is uneven. In an area with low tension the paper is longer, which results in bagginess. LÄS MER
4. Hygro- and hydroexpansion of paper : Influence of fibre-joint formation and fibre sorptivity
Sammanfattning : Paper is a versatile, cheap and environment-friendly material. Nevertheless, there are several factors limiting its usefulness, and one of the major issues is that cellulosic and ligno-cellulosic fibres spontaneously sorb water. At the same time, the water uptake changes the dimensions of the paper. LÄS MER
5. Interfibre Joint Strength under Mixed Modes of Loading
Sammanfattning : The load carrying capacity of interbre joints are one of the key entities for build-up of strength inpaper materials. In order to gain insight in how to tailor the macroscopic properties of such materialsby chemical and/or mechanical treatments at a microscopic level, direct measurement of individualbre{bre crosses are typically performed.
