Abstract: A fibrous structure is disclosed. The fibrous structure exhibits a plurality of discrete knuckles arranged in a pattern of repeat units. The repeat units can include a plurality of rows arranged orthogonally in an X-Y plane, each row having a portion of the discrete knuckles, and each discrete knuckle separated from adjacent discrete knuckles in a row by a distance. Each of the discrete knuckles within the repeat unit can have substantially the same shape and size; and wherein the distance between at least two adjacent discrete knuckles in each row are non-uniform such that the repeat unit exhibits varying pillow width distances along the rows in both the X and Y axes.

Abstract: A fibrous structure and rolled tissue products of fibrous structures. The fibrous structures exhibit a plurality of discrete knuckles arranged in a pattern of repeat units. The discrete knuckles are characterized by each of the discrete knuckles within the repeat unit having substantially the same shape and substantially the same size. At least some of the discrete knuckles are arranged in a plurality of rows of adjacent knuckles separated by a distance, including at least a first row and a second row. The distance between at least two adjacent discrete knuckles in the first row is different than the distance between at least two adjacent discrete knuckles in the second row. The rolled tissue product exhibits a roll bulk of greater than 4 cm3/g or a percent compressibility of less than 10%.

Abstract: A method for making a multiply fibrous structure. The method comprising the steps of: depositing a slurry of pulp fibers onto a Fourdrinier wire running at a first velocity V1; transferring the web from the Fourdrinier wire to at least a first molding member moving at a second velocity, V2, slower than the first velocity, V1. The molding member comprises a substantially continuous relatively low density network at least partially defining a plurality of relatively high density, irregularly shaped, discrete elements situated in an irregular pattern. The embryonic web is partially dried, adhered to a Yankee dryer surface, creped from Yankee dryer and reeled at a velocity, V4, that is faster than that (V3) of the Yankee dryer.
