Transverse fracture properties of green wood and the anatomy of six temperate tree species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
© Institute of Chartered Foresters, 2016. All rights reserved. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of wood anatomy and density on the mechanics of fracture when wood is split in the radial-longitudinal (RL) and tangential-longitudinal (TL)

Predicting wood density of growth increments of Douglas-fir stands in New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Forestry Science, 2018
Background Douglas-fir comprises 6% of New Zealand’s planted forest area and contributes to the national carbon sequestration estimate. Carbon stock changes in Douglas-fir stem wood can be calculated by multiplying the increment in stem volume under bark

Relationships Between Wood-Anatomical Features and Resistance Drilling Density in Norway Spruce and European Beech

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Environmental conditions affect tree-ring width (TRW), wood structure, and, consequently, wood density, which is one of the main wood quality indicators.

Global patterns of tree wood density [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology
AbstractWood density is a fundamental property related to tree biomechanics and hydraulic function while playing a crucial role in assessing vegetation carbon stocks by linking volumetric retrieval and a mass estimate. This study provides a high‐resolution map of the global distribution of tree wood density at the 0.01° (~1 km) spatial resolution ...

Functional Relationships Between Branch and Stem Wood Density for Temperate Tree Species in North America

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020
Wood density is strongly related to key aspects of tree physiological performance. While many studies have examined wood density in different parts of trees, for a variety of reasons, there are very few studies that have compared within-tree density ...

Influence of growth parameters on wood density of Acacia auriculiformis

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2022
Understanding the drivers of wood density variation both within a tree and between trees is important in predicting the quality of wood logs and improving this quality through adequate forestry management.

Impact of Wetting–Drying Cycles on the Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of Wood Waste–Gypsum Composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Large amounts of wood waste are generated each year in the world. In an attempt to identify a good recovery option for those residues, wood waste from construction and demolition works were used as raw materials in gypsum plasters.
