Paper Structure

On a papermachine, some 1010 fibres are delivered per second with standard deviation about 7% of the mean at the fibre scale--twice that of a random structure. Figure 7 illustrates a random network representing about one square centimetre of a thin sheet of paper, say 5 grams per square metre.
