  2. 6. Orientation of elongated, macro and nano-sized particles in macroscopic flows

    Author : Karl Håkansson; Danel Söderberg; Fredrik Lundell; Lisa Prahl Wittberg; Jean-Yves Cavaillé; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Orientation; fibre; fibril; turbulent channel flow; particle streaks; flow focusing; cellulose nanofibrils; extensional flow; Smoluchowski; rotary diffusion;

    Abstract : Non-spherical particles are present all around us, in biological, industrial and environmental processes. Making predictions of their impact on us and systems in our vicinity can make life better for everyone here on earth. READ MORE

  4. 7. Orientation of fibres in suspensions flowing over a solid surface

    Author : Allan Carlsson; Daniel Söderberg; Fredrik Lundell; Staffan Toll; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluid mechanics; fibre orientation; shear flow; fibre suspension; papermaking; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Abstract : The orientation of fibres suspended in a viscous fluid, flowing over a solid surface, has been studied experimentally. A shear layer was generated, by letting the suspension flow down an inclined plate. READ MORE

  5. 8. Wood-fibre composites : Stress transfer and hygroexpansion

    Author : Karin M. Almgren; Kristofer Gamstedt; Véronique Michaud; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

    Abstract : Wood fibres is a type of natural fibres suitable for composite applications. The abundance of wood in Swedish forests makes wood-fibre composites a new and interesting application for the Swedish pulp and paper industry. READ MORE

  6. 9. Pith location and annual ring detection for modelling of knots and fibre orientation in structural timber : A Deep-Learning-Based Approach

    Author : Tadios Habite; Anders Olsson; Osama Abdeljaber; Jan Oscarsson; Welf Löwe; Julie Cool; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sawn timber; Pith location; Deep learning; Artificial neural networks; Convolutional neural network; Conditional generative adversarial network; Knot detection; Knot modelling; Knot reconstruction; Fibre orientation; Annual ring profile; Byggteknik; Civil engineering;

    Abstract : Detection of pith, annual rings and knots in relation to timber board cross-sections is relevant for many purposes, such as for modelling of sawn timber and for real-time assessment of strength, stiffness and shape stability of wood materials. However, the methods that are available and implemented in optical scanners today do not always meet customer accuracy and/or speed requirements. READ MORE

  7. 10. Modelling and simulation of paper structure development

    Author : Stefan B Lindström; Tetsu Uesaka; Myat Htun; Cyrus Aidun; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Forming; Fibre; Paper; Fibre suspension; Paper structure; Simulation; Rheology; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract :      A numerical tool has been developed for particle-level simulations of fibre suspension flows, particularly forming of the fibre network structure of paper sheets in the paper machine. The model considers inert fibres of various equilibrium shapes, and finite stiffness, interacting with each other through normal, frictional, and lubrication forces, and with the surrounding fluid medium through hydrodynamic forces.
