Spalting Fungi : Genetic Identification, Material Interactions and Microscopical Characteristics of Extracted Pigments

Creator:: Vega Gutiérrez, Sarath Mercedes
Abstract:: Spalting fungi show strong potential as natural colorants on a variety of materials, specifically textiles and wood. Four species of spalting fungi are currently utilized in this manner: Scytalidium cuboideum, which produces a red pigment called draconin red, Scytalidium ganodermophthorum, that produces an unknown yellow pigment, and Chlorociboria aeruginosa and...

Perceptions on Spalted Wood: The Influence of Historic Spalting Patterns and Valuation of Spalted Wood Around the World.

Creator:: Vega Gutiérrez, Patricia T.
Abstract:: During the 1400s – 1600s, spalted wood was an expensive commodity used in marquetry style artworks across primarily Germany and Italy. It fell out of favor during the Industrial Revolution, but is currently experiencing resurgence in popularity with US woodturners. How spalted wood is used, and what types of spalted...

Organizational cultural compatibility of engineered wood products manufacturers and building specifiers in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Fernando, Balapity Modarage Shanuka R.
Abstract:: Organizations are significantly influenced by corporate cultures of the interacting organizations. Both the construction industry and engineered wood products (EWP) manufacturing industry are generally known for operating in a traditional environment maintaining conservative corporate cultures, which can create friction when they try to interact with a more liberal architectural industry...

Exploratory Study of Salvaged Lumber as Feedstock for Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT)

Creator:: Arbelaez, Raphael E.
Abstract:: The United States generates over 70 million tonnes of wood waste annually, with over 27 million tonnes still available for recovery. Current recycling rates for wood waste are in the range of 10% to 15%, which is much lower than other common building materials and indicative of an underutilized resource....

Wood-Rotting Fungal Pigments as Colorant Coatings on Oil-Based Textile Dyes: A Detailed View of the Interaction between Fungal Pigments and Some Commercial Fabrics

Creator:: Palomino Agurto, Mardonio
Abstract:: Natural dyes have been used to color textiles for centuries, but with the shift to mass production, the use of synthetic dyes has increased due to their lower cost and easy manufacturing volume. However, synthetic dyes (such as disperse blue dyes 106 and 124) have been reported to cause skin...

Management of powder-post beetles, Dinoderus minutus F. in freshly cut bamboo

Creator:: Garcia, Carlos Manalo
Abstract:: The goal of this project was to develop an integrated pest management strategy for the control of a powder-post beetle (Dinoderus minutus F.). This species causes serious damage in Philippine bamboo. Developmental threshold and thermal constants were examined and natural enemies and ftmgi associated with beetles were investigated. Finally, the...

Optimizing Production of Xylindein by Chlorociboria sp. and its Potential for Use with Nanocellulose

Creator:: Van Court, R. C.
Abstract:: Fungi from the genus Chlorociboria are known for their production of the blue-green quinonic pigment xylindein. Extracted xylindein has been the subject of investigations ranging from fabric dying to use a coloring agent in paint, and shows potential as an organic semiconductor in organic photovoltaics (OPVs) and other technologies. However,...

Oils Colored with Wood-Staining Fungal Pigments : Color Loss, Oxidation, and Structural Breakdown

Creator:: Hinsch, Eric M.
Abstract:: Wood-staining fungal pigments have potential uses as colorants for wood and textiles. Traditionally, organic solvents have been used as carriers for these pigments. However, other environmentally-friendly and more readily available carriers must be found. Natural oils have the potential to carry these pigments but have demonstrated color loss over relatively...

Design, Experimental Testing, and Numerical Analysis of a Three-Story Mass Timber Building with a Pivoting Spine and Buckling-Restrained Energy Dissipators

Creator:: Araújo R., Gustavo A.
Abstract:: The engineering community is increasingly moving towards the design of seismic force-resisting systems that limit post-earthquake damage and reduce downtime to increase urban resiliency. For example, structural spines can be used to provide an elastic load path to impose a more uniform drift distribution with building height, thereby reducing the...

Modular Cross Laminated Timber Structures Using Underutilized Ponderosa Pine

Creator:: Bhandari, Sujit
Abstract:: Conflicts and disasters displace millions of populations worldwide. There is a need for rapid and affordable housing to cater to the needs of the displaced and unhoused population. Experience from previous post-disaster responses shows that temporary housing should be rapidly deployable, planned for months to years, and should be environmentally...
