Some Structural and Evolutionary Aspects of Compression Wood Tracheids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Structural changes during the transition between normal wood and compression wood were observed. A comparison was made among gymnospermous species with respect to variations in the common features of compression wood tracheids.

The comparison of properties of European beech Fagus sylvatica (L.) in different stage of degradation caused by wood-decay fungi

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2009
This work focus on comparison of biological degradation of wood caused by wood-decay fungi (white and brown rot). Test samples were made of European Beech Fagus sylvatica (L.).

Mechanical Properties of Compressed Wood with Various Compression Ratios

open access: yesWood Research Journal, 2021
This paper investigates five groups of compressed wood (CF), four of them made from compressed Japanese cedar with four different compression ratios (CR) of 33%, 50%, 67% and 70% and one without compression (control). The specimens were conditioned in relative humidity (RH) of 60% with moisture content (MC) of 12%.

Compression Strength of Fir and Beech Wood Modified by Citric Acid

open access: yesDrvna Industrija, 2012
Previous articles have shown that modification of wood by citric acid (CA) improves dimensional stability and resistance of wood against fungi attack. However, chemical modification of wood also modifies its mechanical properties in some way.

Testing Small Wood Specimens In Transverse Compression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The standard test method recommended in ASTM Standard D143 for compression perpendicular to the grain does not measure pure compression. The results of small wood specimens tested in compression perpendicular to the grain may be influenced by macroscopic

Electrospun Wood‐Derived Biopolymers as Electrodes in Electrochemical Energy Storage Technologies

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electrospinning transforms wood‐derived cellulose and lignin into architecturally defined, binder‐free carbon electrodes with tuneable porosity and functionality. This review shows how fibre design enables decoupled charge and mass transport, enhancing performance across battery systems, while identifying key challenges in spinnability, scalability ...

The influence of mass loss on the mechanical properties of heat-treated black pine wood

open access: yes, 2009
Heat has been a method used to dry and modify the properties of wood since ancient times. Nowadays, heat is used as industrial processes for the same reason.

Influence of position within the tree stem according to growth-ring width of spruce (Picea abies /L./ KARST.) with compression wood

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2004
The work was focused on problematics of annual-rings width according to position within the tree stem. Annual-ring widths, ratio of late wood and early wood by spruce with compression wood were investigated.
