People’s Perceptions of the Visual Appearance of Wood Flooring: A Kansei Engineering Approach

Forest Products Journal, 2009
Evaluations of products based on visual stimuli are at the same time both subjective and important. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the visual properties of wood flooring and people’s reactions to computer visualization of interior wood products. The research strategy involved showing digital pictures of the same room, but

Capacity of Surface Production of Band Sawing in Manufacture of Oak Floor Upper Layers

BioResources, 2023
Thin lamellae, corresponding to the layer components of structural glued members, i.e., 2-ply or 3-ply glued flooring, can be manufactured in re-sawing operations of kiln-dried wood blocks or in wet technologies, which currently seem to be more common ...

Dimensional Stabilization of Engineered Wood Floor Using Linseed Oil and Paraffin Wax Impregnation

International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology, 2021
Abstract: Engineered wood flooring comprises three or more layers of wood veneer adhered together to create a plank. The surfaces were coated to scale back water absorption. However, as wood is a hygroscopic substance, it loses and gains moisture from the atmosphere.

Investigation of Shear Strength of Engineered Wood Flooring Bonded with PUR by Response Surface Methodology

BioResources, 2017
The effects of process parameters (adhesive spreading rate, pressing time, and applied pressure) on the response parameter (shear strength) of engineered wood flooring bonded with polyurethane (PUR) were studied by response surface methodology. A mathematical model was established to provide a satisfying prediction for the experimental results observed.

Technical properties improvement of engineered flooring through hardening by acrylate surface impregnation and in-situ electron beaum polymerization

, 2022
Engineered hardwood foors are taking more and more market shares but remain underused in non-residential buildings such as public, heavy trafc areas besides residential use. Because hardness is the most important property for wood flooring products, wood

Inverse Vulcanization Through Epoxide Chemistry: A Low Temperature Non‐Olefin Route to Sulfur‐Rich Polymer Networks

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Epoxide monomers undergo base‐catalyzed ring‐opening copolymerization with elemental sulfur to afford sulfur‐rich polymers under mild conditions. The resulting materials exhibit excellent mechanical performance, strong adhesion (up to 10 MPa on stainless steel), and outstanding reprocessability.

Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in
