Utilization of temperature kinetics as a method to predict treatment intensity and corresponding treated wood quality : durability and mechanical properties of thermally modified wood [PDF]
, 2014 Wood heat treatment is an attractive alternative to improve decay resistance of wood species with low natural durability. However, this improvement of durability is realized at the expense of the mechanical resistance.

Mid-infrared absorption properties of green wood [PDF]
, 2013 There is a lack of quantitative data on the penetration depth and the amount of energy absorbed by green wood under infrared (IR) radiation. This lack of knowledge is a potential barrier to the development of IR heating as an alternative to soaking as a ...

Effect of Additional Mass on the Apparent Young’s Modulus of a Wooden Bar by Longitudinal Vibration
BioResources, 2014 We investigated the influence of an additional mass bonded on a wooden bar on its apparent Young’s modulus based on a longitudinal vibration theory. Rectangular bars of Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis Carr.) were used as experimental materials.
