  2. 1. Modelling Mechanics of Fibre Network using Discrete Element Method

    Author : Per Bergström; Tetsu Uesaka; Charlotta Hanson; Kaarlo Niskanen; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : 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. READ MORE

  4. 2. Extrusion processing of wood-based biocomposites

    Author : Maiju Hietala; Kaarlo Niskanen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Trä och bionanokompositer; Wood and Bionanocomposites;

    Abstract : 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.

  5. 3. Baggy paper webs : Effect of uneven moisture and grammage profiles in different process steps

    Author : Cecilia Land; Lennart Stolpe; Kaarlo Niskanen; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bagginess; drying; calendering; grammage; moisture content; paper; profile; reels; softwood kraft pulp; storage; strain; tension; web; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : 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. READ MORE

  6. 4. Hygro- and hydroexpansion of paper : Influence of fibre-joint formation and fibre sorptivity

    Author : Per A. Larsson; Lars Wågberg; Kaarlo Niskanen; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : 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. READ MORE

  7. 5. Interfibre Joint Strength under Mixed Modes of Loading

    Author : Mikael S. Magnusson; Sören Östlund; Kaarlo Niskanen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Interfibre joint strength; fibre-fibre cross; paper mechanics; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : 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.
