  • Numerical modeling and experiments on wood-strand composites

    Creator:
    Le, Edward A.
    Abstract:
    In wood-based composites, the glue-line (interface) between wood-strands affects the stress transfer from one member to the next. The glue-line properties determine the rate of load transfer between phases and these properties depend on wood species, surface preparation, glue properties, glue penetration into wood cells, and moisture content of the...

  • Numerical simulation of wood drying

    Creator:
    Berberovic, Adin
    Abstract:
    A mathematical and then a numerical model were developed for simulating a convective batch lumber drying process. The model incorporates mass and heat transfer relationships within the lumber stack, as well as thermodynamic properties of the wood and drying air. It takes into account a change of air properties along...
