In this study, a multifunctional conductive sponge composite (MAPU) is developed using a biomimetic, hierarchical construction strategy emulating the growth process of natural wood. This approach involved integrating biomass‐derived graphitic nanoflakes, synthesized from luffa vine (LVGN), into a polyurethane (PU) sponge matrix.

Experimental observations and micromechanical modeling of successive-damaging phenomenon in wood cells' tensile behavior [PDF]
Single wood cells have complex tensile behavior. To gain insight into this complex functionality, the behavior of single wood tracheids was studied under controlled cyclic tensile loading.

A wood‐form‐stable phase change composite featuring a tensile strength of 134.42 MPa, zero leakage under load, and a phase change enthalpy of 94.73 J g−1 is developed through a structural biomimicry and dual‐network reinforcement strategy. With its exceptional shape stability and remarkable phase change performance, this phase change composite is well ...

Early ontogenetic male cone production in Pinus radiata : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Biology at Massey University [PDF]
The tree breeding industry is interested in early ontogenetic male cone production in Pinus radiata in order to maximise the rate at which successive generations can be bred.

Intra-annual tracheid production in balsam fir stems and the effect of meteorological variables [PDF]
Tracheid production of balsam fir in the Québec boreal forest (Canada) was studied by repeated cell analysis to investigate the influence of meteorological variables during the growing seasons 1998 to 2000.

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Cedar Façade Flame Spread With Respect to Sidewall
ABSTRACT In response to growing energy conservation and carbon neutrality efforts, façade systems incorporating wooden materials have attracted increasing attention, which in turn raises concerns about their combustibility. This study presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation of flame spread along cedar façades.

Flexural anisotropy of rift-sawn softwood boards induced by the end-grain orientation
Inspired by the use of rift-sawn softwood board for covering curved surfaces in Kokerabuki, a traditional Japanese roofing method, we investigated the flexural anisotropy of wood caused by its end-grain orientation.

Wood and fibre properties of fertilized Norway spruce [PDF]
Very intensive forest management is relatively unexplored in Sweden, and while there is interest in pursuing e.g. the use of fertilizers on selected areas, there is concern about the quality of the wood when growth rate increases.
