The study investigated the wood mechanical properties of black alder (Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn.), and silver birch (Betula pendula L. Roth.) a widely distributed deciduous trees in Europe valued for …
The use of plant biomass for energy purposes, including forest residues and underbrush, has many advantages in comparison to fossil fuel. It is considered that underbrush consisting of bushes and …
Wood properties depends on different biotic and abiotic factors what are mainly effecting wood physical and mechanical properties. The same time the wood quality is changing. However, essential lost in …
One of the main wood mechanical properties is elasticity. By evolving nondestructive timber measurement methods, we can obtain information about growing trees wood mechanical and physical properties. The dynamic modulus …
By evolving nondestructive timber measurement methods, we can obtain information about wood mechanical and physical properties of growing trees. The dynamic modulus of elasticity (MOE) is obtained by calculating two …
The objective of this study was to determine strength classes of Scots pine wood, depending on different initial stand density and thinning intensity in Scots pine experimental plots according to …
In Lithuania, the small-leaved lime, as dominant tree species in forest stands, occupies about 0.5 percent of total forest cover (Ministry of Environment, State Forest Service, 2019). This tree species …
In the practice of forest management, it is essential to focus not only on stand productivity but, even more importantly, on the improvement of stem wood quality as well. Most …
The idea of this work is to create technology of specific wood modification to selected different tree species to get similar properties to “bog oak wood”. It has been observed …
The stem wood quality is caused by several parameters, such as wood density, tree height and diameter, also the branch parameters, stem straightness and others. Spike knot branches, like all …
Wood, as a building material of renewable origin, is highly valued and widely used for indoor and outdoor applications in many countries. For a better quality, wood is modified thermally …
