X-ray Scattering Analysis of Spruce Aided by Machine Learning
Norway spruce wood exhibits structural variations in its different tissue types. The main part of the tree consists of earlywood, which forms at the beginning of the growing season and …
Multivariate analysis of near-infrared hyperspectral imaging for identification of moisture content in wood under static load
The relationship between wood and moisture content is complex and can lead to a range of issues, such as cracking due to dimensional changes and fungal degradation (Sargent, 2019). Wood …
Mapping process-related chemical variation in resin-treated wood on different spatial scales
Impregnation-modification of wood typically results in an inhomogeneous chemical distribution, which reduces the effectiveness in wood protection. Macroscopic gradients in modification degree from the centre to the surface of boards …
