ABSTRACT
I would like to dedicate this chapter to the memory of three paper scientists who encouraged and inspired me to seek a career in the discipline of paper physics. The first is Dr. Bertil Ivarsson, who was my first research director when I joined Westvaco Corporation in 1966. Bertil not only encouraged my involvement in paper physics through refining but, as I later discovered, had done landmark research into the nature of drying stresses. The second is Dr. Otto Kallmes, a great teacher and friend in my formative days of paper physics. The third is Dr. David Rutland, for many years a scientist with Xerox Corporation and well respected in the paper physics community, who contributed to an understanding of the nature and con tribution of internal stresses to the dimensional stability of paper.
