Influence of Adhesive Type on Heat Induced Delamination in Tension Loaded Shear Lap Cross‐Laminated Timber Samples Exposed to Radiant Heat Flux

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat induced delamination (HID) is a phenomenon in engineered wood products which may result in the detachment of the bonded timber lamellae before charring propagates to the bond line interphase. This study aims to correlate the thermal degradation of two 1‐c‐polyurethane adhesives at the microscale to the thermo‐hydro‐mechanical behaviour of

Modeling Of Active Bending By The Method Newton-Raphson And The Modified Newton-Raphson

Civil and Environmental Engineering
The paper deals with the modelling and analysis of a single layer timber gridshell produced by active bending. Two geometrically nonlinear calculation methods, the Newton-Raphson method and the Modified Newton-Raphson method, are compared for the ...

The game of timber!

, 2013
Summary: We analyse TIMBER, a game played on a graphs. We find the \({\mathcal P}\) positions for both normal and misère play on paths and show how to win the game. In passing, we also show a correspondence with Dyck paths, the Catalan and Fine numbers. We present an algorithm for winning the normal play game on trees.

Charring Behaviour of Mass Timber: A Comparison of Thin Intumescent Coatings and Plasterboard

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study compares the charring behaviour of mass timber under varied heating conditions when protected by either different thin intumescent coating types or fire‐rated plasterboard layers. Bench‐scale fire experiments were conducted using the Heat‐Transfer Rate Inducing System (H‐TRIS).

HRR–Time Behaviour of Untreated Wood Under SBI Conditions: Implications for the Interpretation of FIGRA and THR600

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reaction‐to‐fire classification of wood‐based materials in Europe relies on SBI‐derived parameters such as FIGRA and THR600. While these parameters provide a robust and practical basis for classification, their relationship to the underlying HRR–time development remains difficult to interpret.

Fungitoxic Potential of Secondary Eucalyptus Metabolites in the Inhibition of Neopestalotiopsis clavispora Isolated From Macadamia

Flavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
Fungi cause injury in forest plantations; then it was tested the fungitoxic potential of Corymbia citriodora, Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Eucalyptus urophylla leaves for inhibiting the mycelial growth of the Neopestalotiopsis clavispora fungus. The presence of citronellal and citronellol compounds in the C. citriodora essential oil was more associated

Government affiliation and innovation in emerging market firms: The role of international diversification

Global Strategy Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This study examines how international diversification interacts with government affiliation to shape innovation outcomes in emerging market firms. We reconceptualize government affiliation as a resource‐structuring mechanism that varies across hierarchical levels and influences the coherence of firms' dominant logics of ...

Rethinking a positive‐sum game: US FDI location decisions in the presence of Chinese FDI

Global Strategy Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This study examines how rising Chinese outbound foreign direct investment (OFDI) in third‐country markets shapes US MNEs' foreign direct investment location decisions amid escalating US–China geopolitical rivalry. US firms initially benefit from complementary co‐location dynamics, as Chinese OFDI—particularly in infrastructure—

When governments act as strategists: Geopolitical turmoil and global strategy theory

Global Strategy Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary The resurgence of geopolitical rivalry is challenging core assumptions of global strategy theory. Long‐standing views that economic interdependence is inherently beneficial, governments act as rule setters, multinational enterprises operate autonomously, and market and political strategy are separate no longer capture today's ...
