Properties of Laminated Veneer Lumbers from Oil Palm Trunks
Journal of Plant Sciences, 2008 Oil palm trunks found in abundant and considered as an agriculture waste were investigated as alternative to dimensional wood. The trunks are of no economic importance in their natural form. However, once converted into the form of Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) their properties improved tremendously.

Eucalyptus nitens Laminated Veneer Lumber
, 2006 Eucalyptus nitens es una especie de rápido crecimiento pero debido a una defoliación severa causada por el insecto Paropsis charybdis el area de plantación en Nueva Zelandia era muy limitada. En 1987 ensis (anteriormente Forest Research) liberó una avispa parasítica que controló exitosamente ésta peste.

Relation of Bulk‐to‐Shear Loss Factors in Viscoelastic Auxetic Metamaterials
physica status solidi (b), EarlyView.This article examines the dynamic behavior of isotropic auxetic viscoelastic materials, highlighting how negative Poisson's ratios affect energy dissipation, damping, and the interplay between bulk and shear moduli. By extending established viscoelastic theories to the auxetic range, it defines bound limits and underscores how dynamic Poisson's ratio ...
