Hot-pressing process modeling for medium density fiberboard (MDF) [PDF]
We present a numerical solution for the mathematical modeling of the hot-pressing process applied to medium density fiberboard. The model is based on the work of Humphrey (1982), Humphrey and Bolton (1989), and Carvalho and Costa (1998) with some ...
