PREDICTING THICKNESS SWELLING OF HOT PRESSED WOOD STRANDS
BioResources, 2012 Strand board can be manufactured from sawmill residues, branches, and crown wood left in the forest. The thickness swelling of these residues is quite different from that of mature wood and can have a negative effect on the physical and strength ...

Reducing the thickness swelling of wood based panels by applying a nanotechnology compound
European Journal of Wood and Wood Products, 2010 The potential of improving the thickness swelling of commercial wood based panels by applying a new nanotechnology compound was investigated. The application of the compound SurfaPore™ W, an aqueous wood-water repellent resulted in a significant improvement in the thickness swelling of the panels tested.

Physical indicators of cartilage health: the relevance of compliance, thickness, swelling and fibrillar texture [PDF]
Journal of Anatomy, 2003 AbstractThis study uses a bovine patella model to compare the relative merits of on‐bone compliance and thickness measurements, free‐swelling behaviour, and structural imaging with differential interference contrast (DIC) light microscopy to assess the biomechanical normality of the cartilage matrix.
