Drying performance, as well as physical and flexural properties of oil palm wood dried via the super-fast drying method [PDF]
Effects of incising parameters were studied relative to the drying performance and properties of super–fast dried oil palm wood. Different incising depths (1/3, 1/2, 2/3, and 100% of the total thickness) and distance (38 mm and 50 mm) were made on the ...

Moisture transport dynamics in wood during drying studied by long-wave near-infrared hyperspectral imaging [PDF]
The complexities of wood microstructure cause difficulties in understanding water movement characteristics during drying. Here, the water transport dynamics in softwood (Japanese cypress) with different sample lengths (30 mm, 60 mm, and 90 mm) and ...
