Optimization of the bi-oleothermal treatment process for wood preservation and fireproofing [PDF]
The bi-oleothermal© process (combination of oil and heat treatment) is a well mastered alternative method for wood protection. However, the fire behavior and resistance to decay of bi-oleothermally treated wood are not good enough to ensure performance ...

SHOCK RESISTANCE OF SERBIAN SPRUCE WOOD FROM NATURAL AND PLANTED FORESTS
Among other things, the origin of the stand has a great influence on the quality of wood as a material. One of the important indicators of wood quality is the impact strength, because a large number of wood products crack under the influence of dynamic and not under the influence of static load.

Intelligent Acousto‐Electrical Metamaterials (IAM) for Sound Source Detection
Our proposed metamaterial concept enables sound source detection using a single material, in contrast to conventional arrays that require dozens or even hundreds of transducers. We show that the coupled acoustic–vibrational–electrical responses in piezoelectric metamaterials give rise to topology‐governed charge transport, producing distinct voltage ...
