MEASURMENT OF BENDING PROPERTIES OF RHIZOPHORA TROPICAL WOOD
ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development, 2017 The Young’s modulus, load at the yield point and proportional limit stress from the compression bending (cb) test were compared with the four point bending tests (4pb). The theoretical Young’s modulus are larger than the real reading for 5mm and 10mm thick specimens, except for 200mm long specimens due to specimen nonlinearity. The experimental results

Acoustic Properties of Selected Tropical Wood Species [PDF]
Journal of Nondestructive Evaluation, 2010 Acoustic properties such as specific dynamic Young’s modulus (E′/γ), internal friction (Q −1) and acoustic conversion efficiency (ACE) of wood are important properties frequently examined by researchers. Vibration technique is one of the non-destructive evaluation techniques used as an alternative method for measuring the ...
