Characterizing veneer roughness and glue-bond performance in Douglas-fir plywood

Creator:

Neese, Jesse L.

Abstract:

A changing raw material supply and smaller, generally lower quality peeler logs, are causing surface characteristics in veneer that can adversely affect glue-bond performance. When lower quality logs are peeled, rougher veneer is usually produced. The typical response by plywood manufacturers is to increase adhesive spread when using rough veneer....

Paving the way for terrestrial laser scanning assessment of road quality

Creator:

Chin, Abby

Abstract:

With the growing trend in use of 3D laser scanning technology for data collection, it is important to study the various potential applications of this revolutionary technology. One such application is the measurement of road roughness at both large and small scales. At larger extents, terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) is...

Effects of Initial Moisture and Surface Properties on Sorptivity of Coarse Soil and Sand

Creator:

Ambrowiak, Gloria M.

Abstract:

Many different models and mechanisms of water imbibition into soil have been described in the literature. Theoretical equations based on those models exist to predict how water will flow in porous media. These models can be useful, but have their weaknesses. Research on imbibition and infiltration into soils has mostly...
