2. Clothing Evaporative Resistance: Its Measurements and Application in Prediction of Heat Strain
Abstract : Clothing evaporative resistance is one of the most important inputs for both the modelling and for standards dealing with thermal comfort and heat stress. It might be determined on guarded hotplates, on sweating manikins or even on human subjects. READ MORE

3. Strength grading of structural timber and EWP laminations of Norway spruce : Development potentials and industrial applications
Abstract : Machine strength grading of structural timber is a sawmill process by which considerable value is added to sawn products. The principle of such grading is that the strength of a timber member is predicted on the basis of a so called indicating property (IP) which, in general, represents an averaged value of the modulus of elasticity (MOE) measured over a board length of about one meter or more.

5. High Strain Fatigue Crack Growth and Crack Closure
Abstract : Understanding of the growth of fatigue cracks is of utmost importance since such growth often has a profound influence on the life of components subjected to cyclic loading. Thus, reliable fatigue life models enable a more efficient use of materials and improve the performance and efficiency in many applications. READ MORE
