Background
My
primary research interest is paper machine hydrodynamics.
My research has focused on understanding two unit
operations during papermaking, namely, forming
and wet pressing. This work was largely supported
by the Swedish Pulp and Paper Research Institute
(STFI), where I was employed, and the Royal Institute
of Technology (Stockholm).
