  2. 1. Moisture-induced stress and distortion of wood : A numerical and experimental study of wood's drying and long-term behaviour

    Author : Sara Florisson; Sigurdur Ormarsson; Johan Vessby; Kent Persson; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; analytical method; calibration; controlled climate; creep; distortion; experimental methodology; FEM; fibre orientation; mechano-sorption; moisture transport; natural climate; Norway spruce; numerical model; three-dimensional; timber beam; validation; wood; Byggteknik; Civil engineering; Forestry and Wood Technology; Skog och träteknik;

    Abstract : With the current advances made in three-dimensional modelling of wood, it is possible to provide an overall picture of moisture flow, and moisture-induced stress and deformations, whereas previously, experiments only provided local measurements. The main aim of the doctoral thesis is to investigate the possibilities of the developed three-dimensional numerical model to predict the behaviour of wood when simultaneously exposed to a mechanical load and a particular climate.

  4. 2. Water resistance of Scots pine joints produced by linear friction welding

    Author : Mojgan Vaziri; Lars-Olof Nilsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wood; wood welding; crack; CT scanning; image processing; MRI; microdensitometry; CPMAS C NMR; density; water absorption; tensile-shear strength; Träteknik; Wood Technology;

    Abstract : Wood welding is a mechanical friction process allowing the assembly of timber without any adhesives. The process consists of applying mechanical friction, under pressure, alternately to the two wood surfaces to be welded. READ MORE

  5. 3. Adhesive Joints in Timber Engineering. Modelling and Testing of Fracture Properties

    Author : Erik Serrano; Byggnadsmekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wood; test method; tensile strength; stress distribution; size effect; numerical simulation; laminating effect; laminated beams; joint; glued-laminated timber; glued-in rod; fracture mechanics; finite element method; finger-joint; experiment; damage; constitutive modelling; adhesive; bending strength; Environmental technology; pollution control; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp; Construction technology; Anläggningsteknik; Material technology; Materiallära; materialteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis, which is a compilation of seven papers, concerns the mechanical testing, numerical analysis and constitutive modelling of wood-adhesive bonds in timber engineering. Applications such as finger-joints, glued-laminated timber and glued-in rods are considered. READ MORE

  6. 4. Wood hydrolysates- New concepts in renewable material design

    Author : Yingzhi Zhu Ryberg; Ulrica Edlund; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Dufresne Alain; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wood hydrolysate; oxygen barrier; coatings; films; hemicellulose; lignin; CMC; chitosan; HSP; PALS; spray drying; SEM with tensile test; glyoxal crosslinking.; vedhydrolysat; syrebarriäregenskaper; ytbeläggningar; filmer; hemicellulosa; lignin; CMC; kitosan; HSP; PALS; spraytorkning; SEM med dragprovning; glyoxal tvärbindning.;

    Abstract : Wood hydrolysates (WHs) are biomasses obtained in processes involving hydrothermal treatments of wood. WHs are rich in hemicelluloses and lignin. Instead of complicated extraction processes, such as precipitation, or extensive purification, this work utilizes the crude WHs. READ MORE

  7. 5. Characterisation of green-glued wood adhesive bonds

    Author : Magdalena Sterley; Erik Serrano; Hans Petersson; Klaus Richter; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; green gluing; finger jointing; durability; shear strength; wood failure percentage; fracture energy; tensile strength; PUR adhesive; Byggteknik; Civil engineering;

    Abstract : The gluing of unseasoned wood, called green gluing, is a relatively new sawmill process, implying a radically changed order of material flow in the production of value-added wood-based products. It facilitates the enhancement of raw material recovery and value yield by integrating defect elimination and gluing already before kiln drying. READ MORE
