The understanding of the most important physical qualities of paper and other similar end-products has had some interesting successes based on simulations and modeling over the last 20 years. The recent trends of using nanotechnology to expand product property space, to use novel raw materials such as Nano Fibrillar Cellulose (NFC), and to look for other applications beyond the traditional ones create new challenges.
