1. Numerical modeling of air-fiber flows
Abstract : The dynamics of fiber suspensions are of great importance in applications such as the dry-forming process of pulp mats for use in hygiene products. In this forming process, fibers are transported in flowing air. The fibers interact with the fluid, and may interact with each other and interlock in flocs. READ MORE

2. Multiscale methods for simulation of paper making
Abstract : In this work, multiscale methods for simulation of paper making are developed. The emphasis is on simulation of the paper forming process and simulation of the mechanical properties of paper sheets. To simulate paper forming, a novel fiber-fiber interaction method is proposed. READ MORE

3. A Novel Fiber Interaction Method for Simulation of Early Paper Forming
Abstract : In the forming section of a paper machine, a fiber suspension is flowing down onto a forming fabric, and a paper structure is formed. By using computer simulations this process can be studied, attaining new knowledge helping to improve paper quality and machine efficiency. READ MORE

4. Nonlinear Elasticity of Fiber Masses
Abstract : The mechanical properties of fiber masses are important in many fields of engineering such as upholstery, paper making, and composite manufacturing, and a fair amount of work has gone into analyzing these properties. However, previous theories have been limited to simple deformations and a restrictive choice of deformation mechanism. READ MORE

5. Simulations of the Dynamics of Fibre Suspension Flows
Abstract : A new model for simulating non-Brownian flexible fibres suspended in a Newtonian fluid has been developed. Special attention has been given to include realistic flow conditions found in the industrial papermaking process in the key features of the model; it is the intention of the author to employ the model in simulations of the forming section of the paper machine in future studies.
