Impact Bending Strength and Brinell Hardness of Densified Hardwoods

open access: yesBioResources, 2016
The objective of this research was to determine the influence of wood species (Fagus sylvatica L. and Populus tremula L.), thickness (4, 6, 10, 18 mm), and degree of densification (0%, 10%, and 20%) on the impact bending strength (IBS) and Brinell ...

Identification and comparison of oil compounds derived from pyrolysis of sound wood and decayed wood of beech by using Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات علوم چوب و کاغذ ایران, 2015
Among the forest diseases, fungi are the most important factors that cause irreparable losses to the wood in standing trees and logs. Fungi are the cause of contamination and decay of trees and timbers in forest or in the stock of factories.

Sustainable Carbon Fibers Enable Stable Long‐Term Lithium Metal Deposition for Prospective Zero‐Excess Lithium Metal Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents lightweight, lignin‐derived carbon fiber current collectors that enable controlled lithium deposition. Structural defects and intermediate‐sized pores stabilize pre‐nucleation quasi‐metallic lithium clusters, promoting uniform lithium plating and stripping.

Comparison of the Decay Behavior of Two White-Rot Fungi in Relation to Wood Type and Exposure Conditions

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Fungal wood decay strategies are influenced by several factors, such as wood species, moisture content, and temperature. This study aims to evaluate wood degradation characteristics of spruce, beech, and oak after exposure to the white-rot fungi ...

Structure of scuttle fly communities (Diptera: Phoridae) in two habitats on a Mediterranean mountain

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2017
Phoridae (scuttle flies) are widely distributed, occur in many types of habitats and are ecologically versatile, which makes them an excellent bioindicator group for evaluating faunal diversity.

SHRINKAGE OF THE GELATINOUS LAYER OF POPLAR AND BEECH TENSION WOOD [PDF]

open access: yesIAWA Journal, 2001
Macroscopic longitudinal shrinkage of beech and poplar tension wood is higher than in normal wood. This shrinkage is the result of mechanical interactions of cell wall layers. SEM observation of cut, dried surfaces showed that longitudinal shrinkage is much greater in the gelatinous layer than in other layers.

Possibilities for Chemical Conversion of Beech Wood

open access: yes, 2015
This article presents chemical composition of beech wood as well as various possibilities for its chemical conversion. The useful components of beech biomass are primarily cellulose fibers, xylan and lignin. Some of the most important technological procedures for wood fractionation are described, as for example hydrolysis, fermentation, pyrolysis and ...

Effects of altitudes and aspects on wood features of oriental beech in Mt. Uludağ (Turkey)

open access: yes, 2021
This study was conducted to determine the effects of altitude and aspect on the wood anatomical characteristics of oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) in Mountain (Mt.) Uludag. A total of 36 samples from 36 trees, one sample per tree, were collected

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...
