Thermal movement of wood and wood composites was studied and compared with that of random and oriented phenolic foams. Cell orientation was a dominate factor determining the thermal response of these structures. In dried wood, thermal movement in the direction parallel to the cells (longitudinal) de

The mechanical behaviour of wood was studied from a micro up to a macro level. Wood is a cellular material possessing a high degree of anisotropy. Like other cellular solids, it often exhibits a highly nonlinear stressΒ±strain behaviour. In the present study the mechanical properties of the cellular
An attempt has been made to improve the quality of low grade wood through radiation induced wood plastic composite ( W P C ) formation in order to use these low grade woods as substitutes for high grade wood. Six kinds of local woods of Bangladesh (simul, korai, mango, jack fruit, teak, and garjon)
