Assessing biaxial strength characteristics of wood-based structural panels

Creator:: Cheng, Ping, 1960-
Abstract:: Biaxial strength characteristics of wood-based structural panels were evaluated by using analytical and experimental methods. Cruciform plywood specimens were tested under biaxial tensile-tensile, compressive-compressive loadings in a symmetrically-jointed- arm test fixture, which was mounted on a universal testing machine. Performance of the test fixture was also evaluated during the tests....

The photoelastic coating method applied to the stress analysis of wood

Creator:: Fritz, Dennis William
Abstract:: The merits of the photoelastic coating technique as applied to wood were evaluated. Comparative tests were made on 12 nominal two-by-four Douglas Fir boards. The object of these tests was to determine the limitations of this technique, such as accuracy and complexity of experimental procedure. Correlation of the experimental results...

Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Vibration and propagation characteristics of wood poles subjected to sonic excitation

Creator:: Shelley, Robert Eugene
Abstract:: The Pacific Coast variety of Douglas-fir was investigated. The samples were tested using both forced and free vibrations. Transverse vibrations were introduced by excitations on the side of the samples. Forced vibrations were applied from 5000 to 0 hertz by a vibration generator, and free vibrations were initiated by a...

A study of load-induced microdeformations within wood-based structural members using optical scanning techniques

Creator:: Irving, David C.
Abstract:: Efficient use of wood in structural applications depends upon the accuracy with which we can predict the mechanical behavior of members under load. Most methods of lumber grading and laminated beam design depend upon statistical and/or empirical techniques in which averaged properties for complete members are derived. A knowledge of...

Fluorescence microscopy for detecting incipient decay and estimating residual strength of wood

Creator:: Lowell, Eini Carole
Abstract:: The objectives of this study were to 1) develop a relatively quick staining procedure that would detect incipient decay by color differentiation under fluorescence, 2) quantitatively assess the amount of decay present with the use of an image analyzer, and 3) re/ate loss in strength at various decay levels to...

The effect of wood density on the kraft pulping properties of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco)

Creator:: Promachotikool, Montree
Abstract:: Three samples of different wood densities of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) were cooked by the kraft process. The yields and the Kappa numbers were studied to establish the rates and the energies of activation of the pulping and delignification reactions respectively. Wood properties did not show significant effects on...
