Neuro-fuzzy Hybrid System for Monitoring Wood Moisture Content During Drying
The heterogeneous behavior of wood during drying is a process difficult to control. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of the neuro-fuzzy hybrid system for monitoring wood moisture during drying.

Drying characteristics of wood of invasive tree species growing in an urban environment
Non-native tree species are increasingly growing in urban environments, where they are exposed to cultivation and pruning measures, and in many cases their growth becomes uncontrolled, even invasive.

MATHEMATICAL MODELING OF WOOD DRYING PROCESS
This work focuses on the development of mathematical models describing moisture movement in wood, when the wood is considered as porous medium. Main moisture transport mechanisms are discussed. It is shown how the wood can be described as a two‐ or three‐phase system.

COMPARISON BETWEEN WOOD DRYING DEFECT SCORES: SPECIMEN TESTING X ANALYSIS OF KILN-DRIED BOARDS
It is important to develop drying technologies for Eucalyptus grandis lumber, which is one of the most planted species of this genus in Brazil and plays an important role as raw material for the wood industry.

Mathematical modelling of wood drying process
This work discusses issues on the design of finite difference schemes for modelling the moisture movement process in the wood. A new finite difference scheme is proposed. The stability and convergence in the maximum norm are proved.

IDENTIFICATION OF WOOD DESTRUCTION DURING DRYING
The subject of this paper concerns destruction of timber during drying. The main goal is to propose a method of avoiding destruction through a suitable programming of drying processes, controlled with the help of the acoustic emission (AE) method. Three different programs of convective drying of pinewood (Pinus sp.) samples are presented.

Features of the Shrinkage Magnitude of Oak Wood Blanks Dried in Kilns of Various Types
Wood is among the materials whose linear dimensions vary depending on the temperature and humidity conditions of the surrounding environment. These characteristics should be taken into account not only during wood machining processes, where allowances ...
